I can`t tell if you`re being sarcastic or not.

Lehman brothers the name died, but the people running the show still got their multimillion dollar bonuses and have since gone on to greener pastures.

Corporations apply for defense contracts because it is a huge boon to their bottom line. If it wasn`t for the incredible profit opportunity, they wouldn`t even bother.

Corporations do not pay for the defense of the country. They do research and development, manufacture goods, and sell those products for the sole purpose of making a profit.
