In a time when our country has massive debt, we cannot continue to wage wars in foreign countries for oil or corporate gain. We waste billions of treasure and precious lives with no end in site. Since your election, private contractors have more than doubled. We could use this money for infrastructure, education, social programs, and paying on the debt instead of the profiteers getting rich. The defense contractors were give no-bid contracts that renew automatically. Secretary Pinetta has threatened the employment and wages of Pentagon employees, staff, and the military to protect these private corporations and the billions in profits they reap of the lives of our soldiers. The secretary has also continued to state the Iraq was linked to 9/11 to justify our invasion. End the wars!
