This really makes a lot of sense:

A North Dakota manufacturer has agreed to pay $2 million to settle a suit saying it had repeatedly shortchanged the armor in up to 2.2 million helmets for the military, including those for the first troops sent to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Twelve days before the settlement with the Justice Department was announced, the company, Sioux Manufacturing of Fort Totten, was given a new contract of up to $74 million to make more armor for helmets to replace the old ones, which were made from the late 1980s to last year.

So they deliberately put our troops in harms way and only pay $2.2 million for yet, but that gets over shadowed by a new $74 million contract. That doesn’t sound like punishment – it sounds like the cost of doing business. I guess that is what we should expect from a Republican President who puts company profits over human life.
