Congress Puts Aside Partisan Differences For Good Of Military Contractors

KBR was not funny knowing that the guy who's cleaning your laundry makes more money than you do in a combat zone.

“It’s time that we stop bickering with each other over minor political disputes and start standing up for the brave defense contractors who keep us safe,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), echoing the sentiments of Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and other congressional leaders as they championed the bipartisan spending increases that would provide billions of much-needed government subsidies to U.S. military companies. “We may not always see eye to eye, but both Democrats and Republicans recognize how important it is to put politics aside when we’re talking about the men and women in our private military sector.”

BULLSNOT!!!!! Govt Contractors are the lobbyists that are milking uncle sugars defense teats dry. We have military men and women going down range and when the guy that walks around scooping ice cream at the DFAC is making more money than our enlisted warriors and some of our junior officers something is wrong here folks. These companies employ folks that are voters and the Sen and Cong want to keep voters happy...so lets waste subsidy money to keep them going. From what we pay them in contracts they should be making enough to stay afloat without subsidies. IMHO.
