Amazon's own Chief Executive and Owner Jeff Bezos believes that the US Defence needs to be a lot more funded if we want to strive as a country. ""If big tech companies are going to turn their back on the US Department of Defense, this country is going to be in trouble." Bezos got contracted from the Department of Defence to do a project for the Military called the'Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure Project' known as Jedi which is valued at $10 billion. The purpose of the project is to make cloud computing services which means delivering storage, databases, etc. at a more faster, affordable price.

?'s: Do you agree with Bezo's statement?
A: At a certain extent, yes. He is not wrong that the US Defence system needs to be funded more since you never know what'll happen.
Do you think that the 'JEDI' project will succeed?
A: I'm 50/50 with this one. Maybe it'll work but it'll need a lot more testing and funding for this to strive.

I think I also agree with him because the US Defence system is unpredictable so the best idea is to put more funds. I think it could work, but it's a risky move so I'm not totally sure of it.
Yes I agree, I don;t think that our Defence system will completley make a new change. They can't solve every problem.
I think that it could work as long as we get the fund fast, efficently, and enough money for it.
I mostly agree with Bezos statement. I dont think it's mostly the defence system that will make the country strive.
I think it will. Bezos is a very smart person and has the people and money to make it work.
Yes I mean not everyone needs to be donating but it would sure help make everything/ our country a safer place.
Yes I think Jedi will turn out good I just think that with everything going faster that they still make sure nobody hacks them or gets everyone elses information from the cloud
Yes, I do agree with Bezo's statement because the Us Defence System needs to be funded more because something could happen and the Us defence might not be ready for it. I thinkt that the JEDI project will work because it seems like it is planned out very well. I also think that it will work because it was set up well and they've had a lot of testing.
1. I agree that more funds need to be moved to Defense issues. There is too much money spent on social safety nets, etc. and we need to focus more on defense.
2. It might, but there's not a lot of evidence to say one way or the other.
I agree with what hes saying because the u.s defense needs to be funded before its to late and someone attacks us and we arent ready for it. I think it will be a 50/50 as well.
I agree that the US Defence system needs to be funded at all times just in case something happens unexpectedly. If the defence system wasn't set up and something happened, we would prepared and that would give the enemy a major advantage. I think the Jedi system will work with time, but I don't think it will work super well at first.
Yes because every country's defence needs to be funded more because then they always have the supplies and money for when the time comes. Yes because he is in a contract so it should work.
