Iraq For Sale

I am reminded of the book written by Smedley Butler. War is a Racket.

"...War! What is good for? Absolutely Nothing!!!"

I can't understand why private companies were allowed in Iraq to support our troops with their neccessities. I sure thought that in the military there are cooks, truck drivers, clerks, etc., that can handle the jobs that the private contractors are doing.

And it sure doesn't make sense to me that our troops on the front lines get paid $3000 to $6000 per month putting their lives on the line, while support contractors are making $25,000 a month.

I'm sure the military could do the job a hell of a lot cheaper if this is the true pay scales over there.
