4. Another Way for the 1 %ers to Profit From War

Having seen how the Cheney Administration provided Halliburton and Blackwater with the keys to the DoD bank vault, the Repubs want to continue to profit off the care (or lack thereof) from us veterans.

They look at us just like battle-damaged Hummers; just scrap them (us) and get us out of sight and out of mind as soon as they have milked as much profit as they can.
