Halliburton… evil like a fox

Anger over Halliburton’s move to Dubai | The Daily Telegraph

Halliburton, headed by Dick Cheney from 1995 to 2000 before he became US Vice President, has announced it is relocating to the United Arab Emirates to capitalise on the Gulf region’s booming energy market.

Wow, do they live in the “we’re-too-evil-to-give-a-fuck-what-anybody-thinks” world.

I mean, c’mon, this is essentially stabbing the administration in the back. They take a zillion dollars of taxpayer money and then basically move into the heart of we-hate-america-central. It’d be like MacDonald Douglas moving to Moscow at the height of the cold war.

Of course, they can. They don’t sell stuff in stores. It is pretty hard to boycott Haliburton. It makes the company look horrible, but then again, with all the graft, they couldn’t look much worse.

The acid test will be to see how many no-bid govenment contracts they get and mismanage from now on.
