A friend of mine works for a metal working company that has been getting contracts from DoD for making (possibly, among other things) the steel shells for the famous ****** ****** bombs.
The company is making a roughly 1000% profit on the contract (they get paid a million bucks for what costs less than a hundred grand). In addition, DoD provided, free of charge, certain special (meaning very expensive) equipment that the company did not possess, that were needed for the job. The company gets to keep the equipment, as a special bonus.
How and why is this happening ? I don't get it !:grumpy:
