Another Contractor Issue: 40 Yr Old Bullets & Kids

    Way to go U.S. Military privatization...One more reason this is not always a good Idea...

US contractor sent 40-year-old munitions to Afghanistan



Washington, March 27 : The US Army has suspended a huge contract
with a munitions dealer who was supplying the Afghanistan government
with decades-old ammunition from the old communist bloc and gun cartridges manufactured in China, the New York Times reported Thursday in a lengthy investigative report.

The company, AEY Inc, was run by a 22-year-old man and had a vice president who was a masseur, the newspaper reported.

With
the federal contract, awarded last January and worth as much as $300
million, AEY became the main supplier of munitions to Afghanistan's
army and police forces....

Yea...Republican Ideas...good for security my ass.

Good Lord, is there no good news? Federal contractors are idiots! Well, at least they're working on behalf of you-know-who and you know why!

everything is manufactured or made in China.
This is getting sickening.
No wonder things are not doing well here.China has all the biz.
I look very hard while shopping to see if I can find anything
made in our wonderful country here in the USA.
