Halliburton is hiring mercs now.
Yeah, I know. They're classified as "contractors", but come on, going on to the Marine base at Pendleton to find these guys?

Nothing like a little war profiteering, check it out here.

Excerpt:The barrel-chested recruiter told Marines looking for a job that they could expect to work 12 hours a day, seven days a week under potentially deadly conditions.

On the upside, they'd be paid white-collar money – $80,000 to $100,000 a year – for blue-collar work, and most of their pay would be tax-free.
