This month’s issue of Harper’s has a collection of postings from TacticalJobs.com. Check out the classifieds if you have time. These guys who go tear-assing around Iraq in armor-plated Suburbans and wrap-around sunglasses at $12,000/month are a problem. The Iraqis have no use for them, and neither do the enlisted men and women.
I want to know how all this privatization of the military is saving the government any money whatsoever. Because it’s certainly not helping the people of Iraq or the morale of our troops, who earn in a year what these guys make in a month.
