On the issues raised by US military airshow jets.
I disagree with the article's arguments. The costs are insignificant
compared with the US military budget, the dangers to the airmen
is a small problem compared with the danger of professional football,
and the danger to the public is small compared with the dangers of life.
On the other hand, military airshow flights can do big harm in another
way: they strengthen the grip of the military-industrial complex,
which wastes hundreds of billions of dollars, and encourages wars of
aggression that can kill tens or hundreds of thousands of people.
