Contractors now comprise 69% of the Department of Defense total "workforce" in the war our country is waging in Afghanistan. At present, there are 104,000 Department of Defense "contractors" actively fighting there, earning huge salaries, of which our soldiers can only dream!
In a hearing of Senator Claire McCaskill's Contract Oversight subcommittee, it was determined that this is the highest ratio of contractors to military personnel in US history!
From June 2009 to September of this year, there was a 40% increase in "Defense Department contractors" in Afghanistan.
Your TAX DOLLARS at work.
