I remember when Bungie made cool stuff like Myth the fallen lords.

It was the first time that (as I remember) private firms were used for security in a foreign war. They ended up shooting a bunch of civilians when they came under fire. I read that it started in Afghanistan but it was the start of private firms fighting our wars. It made war profitable by getting rid of only being a manufacturer for weapons. It’s our biggest industry and totally hidden

I guess to call out Blackrock exclusivity is incorrect as they were just security in Iraq. My point was using private contractors and then allowing firms to profit. This government to private is now infecting everything.

2007, an internal Department of Defense census on the industry found almost 160,000 private contractors were employed in Iraq (roughly equal to the total U.S. troops at the time, even after the troop “surge”). Yet even this figure was a conservative estimate, since a number of the biggest companies, as well as any firms employed by the State Department or other agencies or NGOs, were not included in the census

Norman Schwarzkopf said if we take him out worse people would fill in and he was right

I felt this feeling as we were finding out we invaded Iraq under false pretenses to make money for blackrock. We never did anything. I figured people would change but after voting in same clown after the shitshow he did last time……

You can always tell when your on a new bug when you ask about error “exception when calling…” and AI returns your exact implementation of the error back as a solution.
