[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Paying for overpriced defense contracts in the name of saving US jobs is ridiculous. I have no idea if Boeing is overcharging or not, but as a general approach trying to get a better deal for the US on trade deals, defense contracts, etc. is not a bad approach. [b]Everyone in gov't that ok's these things wants to get a job post retirement with the likes of LM or Boeing - do you really thing they are driving hard bargains?[/b][/quote] I think that people in government are like people in general (I used to be a person involved in non-military procurement decisions). Some are ethical and view themselves as defenders of taxpayers, and some do not. I've also worked in the private sector. There are better but not perfect checks in government, *except* insofar as Congress members intervenes to bring pork back to their districts.[/quote]
