Private Contractors

I saw today that America is once again using “Private Contractors”.  This time to evacuate forces from Niger.

First of all, quit being coy.  Private Contractors, my ass.  Call them by their real name – mercenaries.  That is what they are, pure and simple.

Secondly, why in the hell are they so much better equipped to evacuate our troops than American soldiers?  Aren’t we supposed to have the best trained military in the world?  In fact, aren’t most of these damned mercenaries, ex-US soldiers?  Thought so.

And finally, why are we using mercenaries in the first place?  Do we need to separate ourselves from the nasty crap they will be doing?  Do we not have enough soldiers to do the job for us?  Does some conservative contributor have a “private contract” business needing an influx of funds?
