Raking it in

Who makes the money from the DoD*?

Numbers in billions:

1. Lockheed Martin Corp. - $19.4

2. The Boeing Co. - 18.3

3. Northrop Grumman Corp. - 13.5

4. General Dynamics Corp. - 10.6

5. Raytheon Co. - 9.1

6. Halliburton Co. - 5.8

The first five are weapons systems manufacturers providing big ticket items like planes, tanks, ships, subs, and missiles. Halliburton provides 'services'. You figger it out.
