#2 Oh, and don't forget that little thing called the Constitution which expressly prohibits funding the Army for more than 2 years at a time, "To raise and support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years". Have to run the programs through DoD to get around that little un-amended quirk.
