“Booz Allen earned $1.3 billion pretending to protect approximately nobody from a mostly non-existent threat. What it was actually doing was helping the feds snoop on the law-abiding people who pay the bills. The company shareholders get rich. Its executives get rich. Ex-public servants walk through the revolving door into the company’s plush offices… and they get rich too. What’s not to like? And who’s going to oppose more anti-terrorism spending? But wait, there’s more!”
