Looks like they keep getting busted or audited or something.

At least the Pentagon is sticking to its guns about not getting ripped off.

If the withholding of 15 % of the payments to Haliburton for one month is $ 300 million dollars,
that means that they are still receiving the remaining 85 % of the payment.
That's nearly 1 Billion, 800 Million for one month. They are getting $ 24 Billion a year for what ?

any time a corp turns a profit it's called a rip off; the problem is that they have cornered the national market.

Of course our fearless leader choose to look out any other company from bidding.

better to be riped off by an American company than a French one.

of course better not to be riped off at all, I'm glad we hear of quality auditing of HB.
