Now I need ten truckloads of submachineguns to negotiate it against the lobby groups, and my private ammo factory to secure my argument supply.

BTW, I saved more than all of you so far.

Is that only military space spending, or is it civilian space exploration?

Military I'd say:

"Would reduce number of nuclear warheads to 1,050, from 1,968. Would also reduce the number of Minuteman missiles and funding for nuclear research and development, missile development and space-based missile defense."

"Gentlemen, for the last fifteen years, I've fought at this table alongside your predecessors in the struggle against the Soviet. Now I do not wish to seem melodramatic, but I do wish to impress upon you a lesson I learned with bitter tears and great sacrifice. The Soviet understands only one language: action. Respects only one word: force."

Of course you did. Nobody argues against a guy with a submachinegun, eh...!
