Re: Did you see the shockers on Halliburton?

I told you: I'm currently reading Pr Johnson's new book, The Sorrows of Empire, hence I'm not that shocked by the Halliburton scam... The largest US military contractors are Lockheed Martin, Boeing, General Dynamics (F-16), etc.

Johnson says the US is maintaining about 725 military bases worldwide and some of these bases have an estimated "replacement value" of $2-3 billion.... Besides, just like corporate America, the Pentagon has contracted out many non-core businesses like catering, laundry, mail, even security (provided my mercenary outfits)... So, that's the way it is --that's what the so-called military-industrial complex is all about.
