Well, I am not sure what you’ve read into this post but the U.S. government is not holding KBR to any accountibility. This was just a hearing on a number of contracts and cost of the same. It is a moot hearing to show the public and possible future historians that some activity took place regarding the KRB contracts.
To get another prespective on this, KBR is under considering to be sold by Halliburton. Prior to the war KBR had losses of approx. $109 million. The first year of the war it made a profit of approx $475 million. It was able to settle some asbestos claims and to get out from under the courts.
Of course people are making money on this war — that’s what’s it all about. Why the "new" awakedness about this fact? Were you so clueless and blind and spooked when the war first started?
