DoD quashes study showing enormous waste ...
 

... to the tune of $125 billion.:eek:

The Pentagon has buried an internal study that exposed $125 billion in administrative waste in its business operations amid fears Congress would use the findings as an excuse to slash the defense budget, according to interviews and confidential memos obtained by The Washington Post.

Yes. It is the most bloated bureaucracy the world has ever seen.

They must not have buried it very well if there's a thread on it in this forum.

Whatever you got paid while working for them was a good chunk of that.

Indeed, who knows what masses of people will see it here.

This is not one of the platforms that matter. Search someplace that does, why don't you. Does Brietbart have the story?

Untold millions no doubt.

Read the article, dimwit.

No.

I don't feel like reading it.

I'd wager much of that 125 billion in "waste" is actually lobbying costs.

No, that would be other waste, money spent by contractors, and so comes from procurement dollars, and so is built into the costs of airplanes and ships and stuff. This particular 125 B. is exclusive of procurement spending--it's part of the Pentagon's own operating cost and overhead.
