dwight d. eisenhower. y'all remember what he said in his farewell remarks. that is, beware of the military-industrial conflux. if you think the military-industrial complex was strong when he left, it is far stronger. do not kid yourself. when we expand military spending and develop new weapons systems, there are corporations making huge amounts of money. billions of dollars of profits. the oversight abuses minimal. often they tell you they will do a weapon system for a certain amount of dollars and a big gains to be two or three times more than that. massive overruns. a lot of corruption going on there. i think i would get back to the point i made earlier. what this country is hungry for which says, no we are not going to spend $700 billion a year on the military when we have veterans sleeping out on the street. kids can't afford to go to college. 28 million people have no health insurance. when there are signature -- senior citizens trying to make it on $12,000 a year social security. we need a vision that talks about an america which works for old people.

built in the 1950's at the entrance ramp to those highways you'll see a sign that says the dwight d. eisenhower interstate highway system. sir, there is no reason why those signs couldn't have your name on them. so, mr. speaker, this problem is so urgent, it is so potentially bipartisan in its solution i want to close with the observation that we need to lift this out of the part zahn and observe. mr. speaker, yesterday we celebrated the greatest generation because 73 years ago yesterday they stormed the beaches of normandy. that's part of why we call thement greatest generation. but the other part and other reason we call them that is because they came back to america and they setaside their differences and they invested in projects like the interstate highway system that we all news every day. big part of why we call them the greatest generation. they built our country. and now that generation looks at us and they have a question. and big part of why we call them the greatest generation. t you do, what will you do with that legacy that we built for you? mr. speaker, let's answer that question

if you month later and 58 president dwight d eisenhower authorized the birth of our bed that advanced research project agency and it was at a time-- this predates the creation of nafta. on the satellite in space program would go into this agency this agency would do everything possible, throw bureaucracy to the wind. darpa did this quite successfully and under a year acre eventually to what it is today, which is a 3 billion-dollar a year agency. it still bears summing the traits in its early days with a lack of drucker's inability to move quickly to find new projects. unlike the national science foundation it doesn't need peer-reviewed. it can move quickly. it doesn't have permanent employees. it has the ability unlike other parts of government to fail and hopefully to succeed as well. if the originator of sony technologies that have changed that a build of our daily lives including drones, weapons, driverless cars and you could argue and i think i agree that it's the most successful research agency ever created at least the most successful military research agency. it doesn't mean it

i wish we could do this but as dwight d. eisenhower said the awful arithmetic of the atomic bomb does not permit of any such easy solution. should you keep trying? yes, you should. should you do deploy systems that don't yet work? no, you should not. since we began deploying these ground based intercepters in 2004 it has a success rate of only 50% since 2004. so the even in the strapped down chicken tests it fails half the time and the reason is this is really hard to do. it is really hard to hit a bullet with a bullet and it's amazing that we can do it at all even under pristine ideal conditions and yet it still fails 50% of the time. we know the kill vehicle that are deployed in a third of these intercepters don't work very well. there's a fundamental flaw. yet we have them. so a third of these interceptors we know don't work. there's problems with even the replacement kill vehicle but we'll see. it shows more promise. even if you take the best record since 2010, since 2010, we still -- when you think at the beatles say, it's getting
