American MIC has always been more about wealth transfer than making bombs.
Analysts find Raytheon charging $25,000 for a case of really soft tic-tacs (lemon flavor) - GENUINE AND SERIOUS MILITARY SUPPLY CHAIN
flavor dissipates instantly because of Russian jammers
they better not find a way to make it both lemon and mint
The refill costs $10,000 per tic-tac + labor + only Raytheon engineers are allowed to come and dispense them
I'm sure the Pentagon will investigate those claims of price gouging any day now
Not like generals love to retire from the military to work as high paid analysts for these firms
