If you can't make money any other way, go to the government for a contract. Ross knows the drill very well. It's the norm for S. Central PA which can not seem to sustain itself without Letterkenny, "grants" from Shuster, etc. All cheer while the country goes further broke and the dollar becomes worth less. Wonder why the middle class is struggling? Because their currency is worth less every day as a result of the Federal handout drill that Ross is cheering.

Chambersburg Again, Nothing ever makes the left happy. I guess this is more bad news for the Dems. Are you suggesting the Navy and Army have no right to equip themselves properly Mr Orwell? I thought the left bashed President Bush for the military not being prepared for war? You leftists can't have it both ways.

I'm a machinist at a local shop that does contract work for JLG, Grove and Frick. This contract has a very good trickle down effect for us. I'm an evil "Dem", but kinda confused as to why the whole red vs. blue thing comes into play in this equation? We're in a war, and albiet if I agree or disagree with the reasons as to why we're in it, fact is, we're in it. War is business unfortunatly, and if we don't make it, there is always an Indian or Chinese waiting in the wings to make it, or more over, we're lucky to have gotten the contract instead of them. So, I'll zip my lip on the semantics and politics, pull my 7 days, and rejoice in the fact there are still jobs and contracts left to give out in this country like this newly announced one...

Mathmatical

I always thought M behind a number represented thousand and not million. Maybe I'm wrong but someone out there should know the correct answer.

K is thousand M is million B is billion
$25 000 is nothing to a company like oshkosh. 25 M is barely a drop in the bucket

News Flash!!!! I didn't even touch my copy/paste feature! The website did it for me. All I had to do to get the "quote" reprinted on my comment was click on the "reply" in the comment box of the other person. So whose the idiot now? It is YOU that doesn't know anything. You are showing everyone how truly ignorant you really are! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
