They would have MUCH more money if they (the military industrial complex) didn't get away with charging the taxpayers $3500 for a rifle I can buy for $700, 1.2 BILLION dollars for ONE jet aircraft, and $15 for a .50 caliber round....and then CHARGING wounded soldiers for equipment they didn't take with them on the medivac as they were being airlifted to a hospital to have whats left of their legs amputated.
