The no-bid contractors show their worth once more in Iraq. DillonX cuts right to the chase with his http://youtube.com comment:
DillonX (6 hours ago)Look, we must all understand something — Halliburton is there, not to help our troops, but to make BILLIONS.And they’ve now moved their headquarters overseas so it would likely be hard to get a judgment against them.
The negligence of former Halliburton subsidiary KBR lead to the death of Staff Sergeant Ryan Maseth. He stepped in the shower and died by electrocution. He’s one among a dozen who died this way.
KBR had been given 3 million dollars to fix the problem with the water pump. The pump was a substandard product from China, but KBR knew about problem and did not fix it.
