We really need to get into the army supply business.

The Army can’t account for $68 million in parts and tools shipped to
contractors for repairs in 2004 because it doesn’t demand receipts,
congressional auditors said yesterday.

Looking at data from two inventory control points, the GAO
investigators said 15 percent — or $68 million — of the unclassified
shipments they analyzed ”could not be confirmed as being received."

The
GAO said an additional $481.7 million in unclassified items shipped for
repair, about 42 percent, couldn’t be reconciled with shipping records.

Didn’t people used to actually be held accountable for war profiteering?
