I think the other thing is that the public doesn't understand that the defence market is not a normal, classic market, according to Adam Smith, in which prices are based on supply and demand. We have this very bizarre market.
When we talk about all these things, our abstract conceptualization is of a market that doesn't exist with respect to defence. We need to change our thinking so we understand this market and we can react appropriately to it. Frankly, a lot of the recommendations we see are based on this perfect market that is not the one that in defence procurement we actually work in.
That's another thing: Frankly there's not very much reflection about what that means. Economists have thought about this quite a bit.
