I don't know why they constantly trim it, but the full quote is "Each Javelin round costs $80,000, and the idea that it's fired by a guy who doesn't make that in a year at a guy who doesn't make that in a lifetime is somehow so outrageous it almost makes the war seem winnable." It's from a book about Afghanistan.
