Yeah, I'm with Marcis on this one. Seems very strange what Lacus got going there. No way she got that much resources, that's just insane. I mean, c'mon, there may be the occasional person said to have built a personal/private army, but all this? I thought you guys from the US would at least know about the costs of all your precious military vehicles...I don't even wanna try to imagine what the production costs of a nuclear driven Gundam are. And I can't see a popstar creating all that...Britney Spears building a nuclear powered submarine, huh? Yeah, right. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Although Lacus' income will probably be a lot bigger than BS's and she may still have some contacts, this whole "state-of-the-art-factory-producing-the-most-developed-gundams-of-all-earth-sphere" is stretching it too far. Look at it, her MS are even better than ZAFT's top notch MS, with technology that should never have been available to them.
And finally, Marcis is right, good ol' Patrick Z did really suck when it comes to the cleaningup part after revealing a traitor if Lacus should still have all the influence of the former Clyne faction.

And btw, I think, Marcis meant PSJ, not Terra.^^
