Obviously the US will spend that much money, considering Dick Cheney was Chief exec. Officer for Halliburton. Halliburton is getting paid $100 to wash
one bag of clothes. The soldiers hated the feeling of their clothes when they were given back, and when they wanted to wash them their higher ups told
them they can not. Halliburton is cutting corners. Do the research. A person working for Halliburton was responsible for the "clean" water for your
troops yet it contained no chlorine to disinfect it.
Not many people hear about this. You also have Blackwater who are getting paid more then your soldiers to do the same job. They are trained by your
soldiers but then they sit back and give orders. Then you have CACI who are interrogators for the army. They are overly paid as well.
I watched a movie which had first hand knowledge of what was happening.
I suggest you all watch it!
It is called "Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers", great documentary.
