The more I read and hear about this Blackwater and some other "mercenary" companies the US is hiring it makes me mad...Blackwater gets paid $1200 per day per man from the government-- which it pays back wages on an average of $600 a day to the employee...Most are 6 figure $ employees with many making more than General Petraus ($180,000)...

While we are paying our boots on the ground in our armed services a salary closer to the the $40,000 range....
According to several articles I read-- when the US soldiers still could not get bullet proof clothing and armored vehicles--and it couldn't be manufactured fast enough to equip the soldiers-- it was going to these "mercenary" groups...

Good old privatization.... :???: :(
