In case you didnt notice, I was being sarcastic.
And your absolutely right. Someone has to make some sort of profit during a war. When that someone is directly linked to top government officials however, and there arent a lot of(if any) competing companies who get to make opposing bids and such it becomes unethical. Otherwise HONEST business practices during wartime are just fine, and are in fact necessary.
what really pisses me off is the way that this is getting brushed under the rug. I may be willing to discuss these things on the internet, but there are a lot of people who are glued to CNN 24/7 and will never even know that this is going on.
I was Anti-War to begin with, and the wealth of misinformation and shady dealings has only strengthened my resolve. If things had been done more openly from the beginning I may have actually been convinced that this war was justified, but now I'm having trouble beleiving anything that Bush or Rummy say. :/
