Actually, Halliburton was a loser. Except for all the no bid contracts they got from Clinton to fix Bosnia. But more importantly, what you don't understand somehow is that the whole 90s boom was the result of trickle down economics. You can't find a reputable economist that didn't chalk up the run up to Reagan's economic policies. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to Hillary's impending usurp of the democrat party and the reaction from all the hacks wasting their time working for Dean and Kerry.

LOL "from smokestack industries like Halliburton" What an idiot identification event cue. Well what else does one expect from a lethargic old smokestack mind.... LOL HALLIBURTON COMPANY. Halliburton Company, one of the world's largest suppliers of the complicated technology and services needed to extract oil from beneath the earth's surface, traces its origins to a lone individual who in 1919 began "cementing" wells in the Burkburnett oilfield.qv The company reached global dimensions within the lifetime of the founder, and it acquired a solid reputation within the oil and gas industry for its dependable service and continuing technological innovation. In 1962 it acquired the huge construction firm Brown and Root. Before the energy industry's decline beginning in 1982, Halliburton operations reached a peak with revenues at $8.5 billion and a workforce of 115,000. tsha.utexas.edu halliburton.com Halliburton's Energy Services Group offers a broad array of products and services to upstream oil and gas customers worldwide, ranging from the manufacturing of drill bits and other downhole and completion tools and pressure pumping services to subsea engineering. KBR, the engineering and construction group, serves the energy industry by designing and building liquefied natural gas plants, refining and processing plants, production facilities and pipelines, both onshore and offshore. KBR's non-energy business meets the engineering and construction needs of governments and civil infrastructure customers. KBR also provides operations and maintenance for a wide variety of facilities.
