===Raytheon fined $1 billion for defrauding government===
+
So what does this mean? "Justice is served"? Hardly. [[Congress]] has to award [[Raytheon]] another $1 billion in contracts plus lobbying [[kickback]]s to Congressional campaigns for Raytheon to break even.

So now the taxpayers and [[consumer]]s are on the hook for another $2 billion + added to the [[national debt]] (and its [[inflation]]ary consequences). Make sense? After being [[fraud|defrauded]], the [[government]] reimburses the [[criminal]]s for their loss.

+
And these are the guys who manufactured the [[Patriot missile]] and [[Javelin missile]] systems that failed so spectacularly in [[NATO]]'s defeat in [[Ukraine]]. But don't worry. It won't affect [[Lloyd Austin]]'s pension from Raytheon, and [[Nancy Pelosi]] isn't ready to sell her Raytheon stock yet. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|''The Truth.
