Congressman Exposes Military Waste Of US Tax Dollars – Watch
The feds are intentionally ripping off US taxpayers

On Wednesday, Rep. Michael Waltz (R-Fla.) presented a physical example of how the U.S. government wastes taxpayer money by overpaying military contractors.

Rep. Waltz displayed on the House floor a plastic bag of metal bushings that the U.S. Air Force pays $90,000 for when the average price is around $100.

WALTZ: How much do you think the Air Force pays for this bag of bushings?

USAF SEC. KENDALL: I don't know, Congressman.

WALTZ: $90,000. pic.twitter.com/K1OpbQedbb

Internet users slammed the ridiculous money laundering operation:

The US Air Force is paying $90,000 for a bag of Bushings that normally costs well under $100

Not exactly sure what bushings are but I know for a fact the aren’t 90k a bag… This is exactly how the government and their buddies steal from us…. Think PPE, HS2 , housing illegals and all their other projects

$90,000 for a small bag of “bushings.” Should be like $90!

Privatization just means private contractors fleece the US government!

Of course, some of this money cycles back into the pockets of politicians. pic.twitter.com/d8hKti8kQO
