Halliburton Watch

I just discovered Halliburton Watch, a site dedicated to the practises by Halliburton, the company that actually makes money of wars and `rebuilding‘ countries.

Interesting fact:

The arrival of Dick Cheney as CEO in 1995 was, by far, the best decision Halliburton ever made. Under Cheney’s tenure as CEO, Halliburton’s revenue from federal government contracts nearly doubled. Government-backed loans from the Export-Import bank increased from $100 million to $1.5 billion. The company became the 18th-largest defence contractor, in terms of revenue, whereas before Cheney’s arrival the company was the 73rd largest contractor.
