Hots&Cots has shared photos with NBC depicting mold-covered ceilings on a base in South Korea, a roach on a counter at a Texas Air Force base, and visibly dirty water flowing from a faucet on a New Jersey base, among other problems, the report said.

    If they want to show what the 800 billion military budget gets you then they should also show a bunch of oligarchs on yachts, mansions, taking visits to Jeffsteins pedo island etc.

      For real, they get pissed when the USSR puts missiles in Cuba, but they have them all over the planet. WTF?

        Yep, it is always “Do as we say, not as we do” with the US. “WMDs are bad” unless we are nuking civilians. “Genocide is bad” unless we are arming and enabling the genociders. The most singularly hypocritical nation in history.

    my best friend is an “anarchist” (because he has never read a single line of theory) who works for a DoD contractor. He experiences this every day! His whole job is to be on site for 18 hours a day so that the company can charge the government more. its almost like capitalism cant work with out massive government oversight, but no “THe fRee MarKeT”.

    Does the name “Hots&Cots” mean anything? Maybe some military jargon? Sounds weird.
