Pajamas Putziness.



VDH:
A common slur is that Halliburton is looting the treasury and contractors in Iraq are greedy profiteers. I again found the opposite to be true. Thousands of construction personnel build bases, road, and Iraqi facilities, sometimes under fire, but living with the notion of shelling or shooting any minute. I consider them more likely under- rather than overpaid.
Halliburton truck driver annual salary in Iraq: $80,000 - $130,000.

US Army Private annual salary in Iraq: $15,282.
