Every time I see an article like this I question whether they’re really struggling for supplies or manufacturing consent for more military spending.

Given the levels of deindustrialization and the fact that the US is struggling to supply basic things like artillery shells for Ukraine, I think they legitimately are having production issues. It’s one of those cases where two things can be true independently of each other. The MIC wants more money, and it’s also extremely inefficient.

This is most likely the case.
The people at the top can’t personally hoard all the money if they actually invest it in doing the thing they’re supposed to do. Gotta love blatant corruption coming back to bits the hand.
