i totally agree with robert. i am so sick of the rich stealing from the poor and rationalizing it.There is so much corruption in this country it is unreal. i bet that the heads of cnbc got a "gift" for trying to refute him. the news people are just as bad. They have these front page articles of irrelevant thing and put the article about us soldiers dieing and suicide articles on the 3rd and 4th page.What is more important people being killed whatever nationality they are or big bird comingtotown
The interviewer keeps going on about risk/reward as if she had no understanding of "Cost Plus" contracts.
Unlike entrepreneurs who risk capital and energy for uncertain returns, "Cost Plus" contracts encourage WASTE and FRAUD. The more you spend, the bigger the profit.
$45 for a six pack of coke. that's not outrageous if they are delivering it to a war zone. FedEx would charge you more to delivery it from Atlanta to Tokyo. According to an article in The New Republic (11-30-98), the cost to send four gallons of water up on the shuttle is about $320,000.
The people who drive the trucks take big risks but the lion share of the money goes to the people who have no risk at all, so it is very disingenuous to ask the question that way

Notice how evasive, charged, and irrelevant her last few questions were?
