    Sen. Bernie Sanders criticizes the Pentagon for "excessive" and "obscene" compensation to the nation's largest defense contractors. "What kind of message does it send when a defense contractor is paid 100 times more than the Secretary of Defense?" http://abcn.ws/2pejAuY pic.twitter.com/5TL6s1pwvJ

        Comparing operating assets with SG&A cost, Comrade Bernie's point simply doesn't make any sense.

        The message it sends is that the military industrial complex is alive and well.

        The military have literally "lost" millions. We don't know how many millions because they don't really have to account for it. Misplaced?

        Good question, I'd like them to answer that. It seems like they have so much money they can just waste it, or lose it.

        What does it say too about our defense, when insiders arrange the competition?

        Don't worry Bernie....when a Dem wins the White House again, they can slash the budget for defence and ensure there are bi-partisan panels who agree all contracts over $1mill.

        It's called Private enterprise Mr. socialism. Trying to demonize anyone in private business including defense contractors is reprehensible You want everyone to make the same amount of money for equality. So just move to Venezuela where they do just that You'll be happy there
