They sometimes only get six cents on the dollar and then go out and purchase more of what they just sold. The problem is evidently caused by a faulty computer program that they thought they had fixed. I thought I would make the hawks out there aware of this so that they could volunteer their time to fix the program. Or is this why you argue that we must continue to increase arms spending? *** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
