Again it all comes down to money.
The poor for it is thier chance, granted extreamly dangerous, at huge sums of money and better thier family and would be like playing the lotery except your life is on the line. They will never be given the cance at or a job that can make that kind of money to use to pull them selves out of debt, send children to school, get them off the street.
If it is customary for them to be escorted in un armored vechicles with a small lightly armored escort why do you think the escort was tried to get the f out of dodge? Because now it comes down to money for Halliburton. You can bet your ass that thoes trucks are insured to the max. NAd it comes down to they make more off the truck getting blown up and the driver dying then sending then in with proper fully armored escorts and fully armored trucks. It is ALL about the botom line and produces more for the guy on top. There will always be a poor person waiting to get in there and take the palce of a driver killed fo rthey are waving what would seem to alot a chance in a lifetime at a dream for a better life. Honestly right now if I was given the chance and they would take my disabled ass I would go over there and drive a truck. For the risk for me atm is like I am disabled, no real money to speak of, no real chance at any real money, crappy schools for my children, and thoes who are well off and never been close to being homeless cant understand why if your poor why you just cant do such in such to get out. When your poor and start off poor there is no "contacts" to money, your credit will suck, you will be looked upon differently from others and not given any real chances at all and especially if your a white male. So going over there for me even if I got one paycheck would better my family and our situation for them in terms of affording school. Granted it wouldnt be enough with one years pay to invest but all my stuff is paid off (home, cars, credit cards) so this would put them in school and other need things that will come up. Im useless to my family so I would go there with the understanding I will die but it is for them. Something if I didnt do I would never be able to do for them and again it comes down to MONEY.
If Halliburton really cared for the people over there there would be better truck, better training, and if that all was the case would be one of thier own driving the trucks they would protect. Throw in one of the higher ups kin in one of the trucks and see how fast the ONE truck would get fitted with armor and will mostlikly have tank and choper cover. Like the comment made up above near the top its all about training. If protecting the president not one SS would leave and go and make plans to come back for him. Why train the escort in a differnet way because of MONEY. Trucks are insured worth more then the person driving it and the cargo it carries and alot more then paying to have it armored. Why have the escort leave because again MONEY. What they are driving is worth a but load more, not insured and if so not as much as ole Halliburton trucks are for they are paid with the tax payers money so the truck and the person driving it is worth more. See the Prsident is worth more then the SS. So who you think they want to keep there and protect to death? SS. Why as like the poor they are paid well, know what they are getting into when they took the job, and are well paid. But if there is action taken against the president, well, just like the poor truck driver the SS are despensable and replaceable by alot of others ready to fill the dead SS's shoes.
Im not currupted by politics, training, or anything. I own tv's but not one is hooked up a station ATM and when they were I hardly ever watched the news or any bs spoken by the president or government offical telling me what is happening and what I will like or do. I also think out side the box in almost every situation and see what is happening for full face value. If they were escorted properly, had armor trucks and semis, and wasnt paraded around in the first place as moving tagets hiring locals to drive the trucks there wouldnt be any money in it and we wouldnt even be having this disscusion. IF they were driving by higher ups there wouldnt be this disscusion and they would never of "left" to figure out what todo and wait for the zone to cool off. They would of stuck it out there and blown away everyone shooting at them. And then that wouldnt even be a disscussion because the locals would know that with the first shot the entire block they live on would be leveled. They shoot at and ambush them because they know nothing will be done, shoot look what happended when the arm fully loaded chopper showed up. they are ran and hid.
If there is money to be made high up on the chain no matter who gets killed as long as it is not one of thier own and they are making all kinds of money from it and in the bottom line doesnt effect the money they make and the people who have invested into that company then the lower classes then them will be exploited for the Cash Cattle they and most of us are and it will not change.
The guy in the interview said "I cannot believe the way other human beings can treat other human and shot them like dogs like that without a care" well the government is kinda doing the same without properly training and equiping thoes people driving and escorting thoes humans as well for they can make the change and make it safer but that willcost money, cut into profits to a point it wont make as much as they want and are basicaly putting the guns in the locals hands asking them to kill them so they can make more money and walk away with a clean consience that they didnt pull the triger themselves.
What a way to make a buck. Start a war a piss people off to a point they hate us and kill an american if they can get away with it and on the other hand make money off the ones they kill and kinda wish for more to die for they make more the more they kill. And dangle alot of money in front of not so well off people knowing they will line up at the chance to make it, and why should they care again for its not them.
I got to stop typing for Im really pissed off that no one really sees this.
