Walking around money
$12 Billion in cash was shipped to
Iraq to hand around as appeasement monies
to citizens we were bombing, killing
and displacing. $9 billion was unaccounted
for (as cash can so easily be) and the firm
that was accountable
for it was a shell firm in San Diego.
Big surprise.

Now "walking around money"
seems to be government's way of handling
corporate welfare.

Can we get some accountability,
loans that have to be paid back
with interest, contracts that
lead to jail time if broken and
heads of companies fired for
incompetence at the least?!

Can we get some justice
in this country?

1. "Can we get some justice in this country?" Not as long as criminals are allowed to get away with
their crimes.

And with the focus on "moving forward" - this accountability is not going to happen. Except going forward...
