"And what other US company is qualified to do ALL of the work Halliburton is?"

Brian...by having no bidding one will never know if there are other companies available to do the job.

Plus....and this is a big plus. Halliburton subcontracts many of the projects...just that they get to skim off profits that wouldn't have to be paid if they had open bidding.
