Halisquito

Sorry, passing fad.

But they are pretty much blood suckers.

Iraq needed fuel. Halliburton Co. was ordered to get it there — quick. So the Houston-based contractor charged the Pentagon $27.5 million to ship $82,100 worth of cooking and heating fuel.

Now that's a markup!

That's like ordering a pizza from Domino's for $15 bucks and the delivery person expecting a $5,000 tip because you live in a bad neighborhood.
