Evidently $60 billion is not worth the DoD's time to recover. I guess in the big scheme of things, $60B could be considered an insignificant drop in the bucket compared to the nearly $4 trillion the US taxpayer has forked over for the Iraq/Afghanistan wars.
A petition has been generated at We The People petitioning the Obama administration to:
Enforce the law by prosecuting the corporations & criminals who have stolen $60 billion from the U.S. taxpayer
The Commission on Wartime Contracting estimates waste and fraud have amounted to as much as $60B during operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Defense contractors have subjected US military personnel to substandard services, shoddy work and chemical exposure resulting in permanent injury and death.
While the Pentagon may deem egregious behavior as satisfactory and indemnify this negligence as a cost of doing business, we the people do not. We call upon our government to hold accountable the corporate entities and individuals responsible for the heinous acts committed against the citizens of the United States and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law.
War profiteering has never been so profitable for the wrongdoer and so dangerous for our troops and the taxpayer.
I think it's time to put more pressure on the Obama administration to recover some of the US taxpayers funds stolen by unscrupulous contractors.
If you agree you can sign the petition HERE. If you don't, I'd love to know why.
