No way.

Let me ask you a question.

I think probably in olden days, you'd, you know, have a scotch and work it out.

Well, I decided I'm going to the guy's district holding a press conference and telling him I'm coming for a seat.

Well, look, there's very little competition.

There used to be 51 prime defense contractors back in the 90s.

There are five now.

Five.

Okay, and I could cite, we could spend the whole night talking about different ways we get gouged.

Let's take the C-17, okay, transport aircraft.

Sure.

Soap dispensers.

The report that we saw, 7,900% markup on soap dispensers.

Okay, so imagine what happens with everything else.

But think about the cost that we are all paying for that.

And like this problem, it plays out on a bunch of systems and you name it where the troops can't even fix their own stuff.

because of these contracts, where it's got to be repaired by the company or their subcontractor.

It costs the public a lot of money.

It hurts readiness for the troops because, again, they can't fix stuff that they would know how to do because of these contracts.
