Not so with the deaths in Iraq.

I agree the Iraq war was stupid but I have thought that since 1991. We
should have come home when Powell said we should.

Haliburton was simply the price we paid for not having a draft. In
earlier times it would have been army draftees doing those jobs.
Haliburton was simply the only company that had the resources to do
the mission. They really don't have any meaningful competition in that
arena. This is not really a "Cheney" problem. I made a lot of money in
the 90s on HAL when it was Clinton buying their services ... in a no
bid contract. If you realized Clinton was not going to stop the Iraq
war in 1992 and loaded up on HAL in the single digits you saw it go
to $30. They were doing the logistics for the ground services in the
"no fly zone" war too.
That was where we got the money for our kitchen remodel ;-)

Very solid thinking..

Scotty
