War profiteering, the ancient art of ripping us off. While our jobs go to India/China/etc, because we're "too expensive", contracts are let out in Iraq under strict control of the war profiteers. That's why they're keeping the rest of the world out. So they can charge $250,000 per head to train Iraqi security personnel, etc. etc.
I watched the sorry proceedings on CNN, when the Republicans herded the spending bill thru without any amendments or opening of the books, by the single vote majority, 7-6, on every point that Democrats brought up. Dirty bastards, war profiteers. Yeah, let's show em the good side of America over there. 100% kickbacks on every contract. Democracy?
