> Halliburton (KBR) workers in Iraq paid 50 cents an hour

The trouble is that the subcotractor companies to KBR are being paid one-half of an Amercian worker’s pay (in the area of $20 per hour), but they only pay their employees the $0.50 per hour. That is the exploitation, and KBR executives are aware of this. Someone in KBR is getting some profitable kick-backs for these "sub contracts" that they are being paid for American worker jobs and then sub-let out.
