This is like watching a parent refuse to buy their child a Star Wars figure saying it's too expensive, then ordering them a $40 steak dinner and spending an hour cajoling them that they must eat it because they paid for it.
Even as the US economy teeters on the brink of default, the federal government has handed a $72 million dollar contract to defense contractor Lockheed Martin to install radiation-firing body scanners at 300 more airports across the east and central United States, despite the availability of devices that do not rely on radiation to function.
“Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) has been awarded two regional task orders totalling $72 million to help TSA integrate and deploy new passenger screening and security equipment at airports across the east and central United States,” states the press release.
Is anyone awake out there ?
Why do you all tolerate this ? Even if it doesn't come to pass and it will, why even tolerate the mere words and threats, and the test by these usurpers to see how much you'll take in silence or near-silence ?
Why do masses of suckers make the rounds of useless corporate run talk shows on AM radio thinking what they say matters ? The local FM station WXTK runs a moronic bumper that "your opinion counts, so use it." You'll be telling a former MP who was run off WPRO for racist comments when you do.
How about "you opinion counts so act on it" ? No, they'd never say that. Then their cronies would have to find new jobs and people who aren't married to each other and bureaucrats, military, police and fire would be elected to office in the USA.
