Our Lefty Military

The military is also the most wasteful organization known to man. A three hundred-times-a-janitors salary pales in comparison to the huge amounts of money wasted on weapons procurement boondoggles alone.

Another area in which the comparison fails is because while the civilian CEO makes more than his military counterparts there aren't too many ex-CEO's still drawing a salary from their old companies, but there are a lot of retired General Officers, as well as still more numerous retired Field Grade officers (who make almost as much) on down to senior Enlisted retirees, all of them getting free medical and other benefits.

300 x 1 versus 10 x 100 + 8 x 500 + 5 x 5000. Oh yeah we should follow the NYT's recommendations...
