Malaysian Flight 370

Does it bother anyone else that we are told our satellites can read a license plate from space, but it took about ten years to find Osama Bin Laden, and now we can't find a jumbo jet?   We are nearly bankrupt, spending more for "military" which includes intelligence, than the next 15 biggest spending countries in the world combined, and we never seem to get results or any positive return on our investment!  The "defense contractor" corporations get richer and richer, and a lot of brave young people get killed or maimed, but there is never any success.
