Private for profit contractors engaged in war and espionage equals one thing [View all]

War Forever. Endless war. Endless boogeymen. As long as there is profit and no oversight or oversight with lying (ie clapper to wyden)..we're toast. Is it possible to reign this in? I don't know. I know that today I am very depressed about it. .but it just seems that there must be something to be done.. some legal way to stop it. Maybe not. Did anyone here ever think it would come to this when we began this war on terror? Its obscene. War and spying for profit in the name of the us govt. How do we roll this whole idea back or prove it illegal? How?
