As more and more commerce travels by sea the ability to transit the global waterways is key to economic and military power. Of course denying those key waterways to future aggressors is also key.My worry is that the Obama administrations push for total nuclear disarmament will cause the delay of the SSBN-X and the next generation SLBM. Let alone the MMIII replacement that is long overdue. @ Navybrat111 — absolutely, build, build, build!!

It provides high paying jobs with long term employment. So cramming more shipbuilding nearterm is better than stretching it out at a much lower rate. Besides, the treasury doors are open full swing so lets shovel the money out and get the boats we need. Shipbuilding is a pefect activity for economic stimulus.
