That's how much the CEO's running Haliburton's subsidiary promised
to pay employees driving "thin-skinned" transport trucks in Iraq.
Yes, the $80,000 per year doesn't include overtime, and it's supposed to be
'tax-free'....
BUT!! Those employees of Haliburton driving tanker-trucks and other "thin-skinned" transports on Iraqi roads aren't even allowed to carry firearms
for their protection; not even handguns!! That makes my blood boil...

I say, it's not worth it!!...Not if you're not allowed to protect yourself
with a firearm.
I wouldn't drive those trucks for $80,000 per year! UNLESS.. I ALSO had an $500,000 insurance policy, a kevlar-ceramic vest and kevlar helmet, an AK-47 and a handgun, and a quick-release mechanism in the tractor-cabin
should I be hauling a fuel-tank hit by an RPG-7.
