I think the best way to defeat our adversaries is to leave a squadron of F-22’s unattended and allow them to be stolen. Just think of training and logisitical nightmare they just acquired along with our latest and greatest technical marvels!

I used to work with a jaded old Cold Warrior who joked that the most efficient way to bankrupt the USSR would have been to fill the Pentagon with all of our classified materials (totally unorganized) and allowed unlimited access to the public for a fee of $20/day. The Soviets would have sent an army of KGB agents in there every day for years trying to make sense of it all until they ran out of money.
