in iraq even in the major citys

doing the same jobs as an army guy get 20k for
I donot mind the semi-grunt making the 100k a year
but do mind the CORP billing 250k for the mans time

edit looks like I guessed too low

http://www.halliburtonwatch.org/news/labor2.html

link claims a $5 a day iraq worker is billed at $50 or 10X
so 100k a year man costs the USA what????????
remember who owns this no bid CORP??????

has anyone seen real billing rates for the 100k a year guard
There are truck drivers in the US that are not getting shot at who make about that much (if it is such a good deal...you know you too could apply for the job)....and of course, there is no one in the US military in Iraq that only makes $20K. Imagine how bad the rest of the "information" you posted is. You should try to find your info in other places besides wacko left-wing web sites.
