Oops They Did It Again: Boeing Massively Overcharges Pentagon for Spare Parts

On today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:

This is why we can’t have nice things. Last week we reported on Raytheon being fined for overcharging and bribery; and this week we learn that Boeing is in on the game as well. Are we getting what we pay for with military spending? Also today: two potentially major wars bubbling under Biden’s “leadership.” Finally…the Ukraine loan scam.

Watch all speeches from the recent Ron Paul Institute Conference.

    1. Department of government efficiency will solve this.

      Ron Paul + Elon Musk are going after the Fed Res system too!

      1. “Government efficiency” is likely about as oxymoronic as “military intelligence.”

        And if Musk is in charge, the sole likely change will be that more of the same amount of (or more) government revenue will flow to SpaceX , Tesla, etc. than did before.

  1. Ike built this monster at the Pentagon!

    Out-of-Control Military Spending Since Eisenhower’s Presidency May be the Primary Reason Why the US National Debt is $23,000,000,000,000 (23 trillion) and Counting.

    1. The government is not going to give us refund checks for the money it mismanaged to spend.
      You can count on Boeing and Raytheon to mess things up and to overcharge you for what they spend your blood money on.
      I wish those companies would go the way of Enron.
      They spend money on wars that kill soldiers from both sides of the conflicts and civilians in war zones. The people living in the war zones live in a Hell On Earth and never live in a place when there is peace. Soldiers die before their parents do and go home in body bags.

      1. Boeing is at the top of my list. They even launched a rocket to the space station and got stuck. They build junk!

        March 21, 2022 How many Boeing 737 crashes have there been since the year 2000?

        A Boeing 737-800 crashed today in southern China, but it's not the only one. The particular Boeing 737-800 used on the flight was six years old according to the Aviation Safety Network. The Boeing 737-800 is amongst the most common passenger planes in history and is not to be confused with the 737 Max, which was grounded after two fatal crashes in 2018 and 2019 caused by design flaws.

        1. boeing mechanics just got a 38% pay increase over the next four years for their wonderfulness

      2. I realise now that we don’t really have state sovereignty. The US blob is influenced externally, and it wields its massive power to influence and war externally.

        The result is the blob has an interest in ruining those who don’t obey it, but it’s also influenced to intervene in others’ affairs.

        The dominant balance was against arming Ukraine or moving the embassy to Tel Aviv or recognising the Golan Heights or exiting Afghanistan. However, the balance shifted. So, it’s very much a blob, not some organised elite.
