Such incredible corruption in their $60Billion a year defense industry. Can you even begin to wrap your mind around the corruption in our trillion dollar a year, non audited, MIC boondoggle defense department? How about the corruption on that half a trillion funneled to the Uke laundromat?

I don’t know where you got the idea it isn’t audited. I personally sat through numerous audits. They were efficient and thorough. Picture a personal tax audit but with ten auditors and more documentation than a person can carry.
You may be thinking about the periodic articles reporting x amount of equipment that can’t be accounted for or missing funds here or there. The cases I read public reports about that I was involved with were horribly misrepresented in the media to make the military or a contractor look bad. In those cases, the reporting was outright slanderous.
The military budget is HUGE and if you’ve ever run even a small business, you’ll soon realize you can’t account for everything. It’s just not possible. Over a three-day weekend I “misplaced” $2600 which is not an inconsiderable amount in my small business. It took hours to find that I had entered it into the books as what it was, but the billing was from a finance firm and the two didn’t match. Imagine if you’re tracing a billion dollars spent on millions of items from full units down to screws.
