The DoD being involved in contracts that don't deliver on promises or are outright fraud? That would never happen.
"The Department of Defense, which spent about $422 billion on contracts for goods and services in FY 2020, has been the target of contracting-related fraud schemes. For example, one contractor pleaded guilty to defrauding the department by overbilling. DOD is also vulnerable to other types of contract fraud and corruption."

Nope...not a chance. No failed products or poor new-tech decisions...not on your watch.

"The U.S. Department of Defense has spent tens of billions of dollars over the last 25 years on weapons systems that simply have failed to deliver as planned."
Companies would never rip off our DoD...no sir. Anyone who thinks that must be a conspiracy nut...or maybe just a contrarian idiot.

It isn't as though we have poured billions of dollars into a DoD that hasn't bothered to do an audit in...how long (hint...more than a handful)?
Hey, here's NPR (who has their own recent problems ): https://www.npr.org/2021/05/19/99796164 ... hange-that
You really make this too easy.
What is it about people that refuse to recognize that a company continues to put out false information about their product? If it is any relief, you have plenty of company. Plenty of people and institutions were taken in by Enron (hey...an energy company), by that crazy, but cute, chick with the fake medical cures and the silly "genius" who was recently involved in that crypto currency fiasco? Didn't we have to save some banks from going under as a result of all that? All new and improved gizmos...and all faked it and made it...until they didn't.
Hundreds of millions of dollars forcibly given away by our legislators to Bloom...and that will continue for many more years. Not just the state's dozen or so million. The state tried to change the terms of the contract a couple years ago...but...so-called law makers are not lawyers and were given a lesson on the need to actually read a bill before you pass it. John Kowalko and many others said that passing that legislation was the worst deal they had ever made. You were probably right there...in the middle of that conversation...no?
And now, the Green folks are still pushing Bloom's products. Funny, Bloom doesn't list their anticipated losses due to warranties, even though they are contracted to cover those loses. Creative accounting.
And by higher ups...I mean higher ups. For the reasons mentioned. That bothers you. But...but...but...Bloom gave some money to sponsor something, and our AD said, publicly, the Bloom is all good and cozy.
I'd go on about the Port of Wilmington, but we have drifted a bit off the topic of football.
