Why is Northrop Grumman robbing US tax payers via "Gov Trip", fed employees official travel service?

Gov trip charges Fed Employees $1400 for round trip tickets that can be purchased commercially for half the price.

==========================
"The 10-year, $450 million, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract was awarded Aug. 13 to the Mission Systems unit of Los Angeles-based Northrop Grumman Corp. and Carlson Wagonlit Government Travel Inc. of San Antonio."

==========================

Feds are ordered to use "Gov Trip" even though it cost far more than the tickets would commercially.

The GOP and Bush have been trying to give the Federal Government to Northrop Grumman in order to funnel tax revenue to their profit margins.


Why aren't people up in arms over Northrop Grumman ripping off US tax payers?

Sadly, Americans realize that fiscal responsibility and government don't go hand in hand and that there's nothing they can do about it.

So THAT'S what they laid off my dad after 30+ years working in their factory. They wanted to pay for trips. GREAT.

Sources about "bush giving the govt. to Northrup Grumman?"

Just because you make it up doesn't make it true.

My Friend, that's just the tip of the iceberg ! NG has a very inefficient operations, wasting $$ in most of it's divisions.
One division with 400 employees , used to have up to 7-8 VP's, and they used to get a brand new car every 4 years.
Most of the defense contractors, are mismanaged and waste $$. Tax payers $$.

Best Regards.
