Contracts let without competitive bidding. Money paid for work not done. Obscene overcharges, tens of billions missing and nobody even charged. Where are the congressional committees? Where are the special prosecutors? Where is the outrage?

Corruption is not a partisan issue. All congressmen should oppose this because children and grandchildren of members of both parties will be enslaved to the same huge debt. We are years past time for people to go to prison, and Henry Waxman can't do it alone.

If Congress won't act on this, it's time to remove the incumbents. Let's make the corporations purchase a whole new bunch of politicians. They can afford it.
