Boeing is not in trouble for money laundering, but the U.S. military is accusing the planemaker of some fiscal funny business involving cleaning supplies. An audit released by the Department of Defense on Tuesday found that the company was overcharging the government for spare soap dispensers on C-17 cargo planes.
Everyone overcharges when it’s a government contract, which is annoying enough because everyone acts like it’s not their money that they’re stealing, but this is just obscene.
They’re stealing a little from themselves, but a lot from everyone else. So it is fine.
