The B61 is only one nuclear weapon program. The entire program will cost us $7.675 billion in the next year; this is $98,000,000 more than was budgeted this year.
I guess the cold war is heating up.

$23,000,000 here, $23,000,000 there
Did you know that in the next fiscal year we will be spending about $560,000,000 on a particular type of nuclear bomb, B61, the effectiveness of which is questioned by some in the Air Force? Our Congress in its wisdom decided that the Department of Energy was not asking for enough for this program. Ergo, they bumped it up by $23,700,000.
