Halliburton
Tim’s take
For him Halliburton is shorthand for the war economy that never actually loses, the thing that profits no matter who's in charge or what the stated reason for a conflict is 45:45 25:24. He names it in the same breath as Cheney, Raytheon and Blackwater as proof that wars are fought for defense contractors rather than principle, and that chaos itself is something a company like this is built to exploit 1:26:10 22:36 21:08. The Bosnia and Saudi stories extend this into a picture of the same contractors turning up wherever there's an oil pipeline or a defense budget to skim 52:18 10:00.
He also uses it as a punchline for generic corporate power — a rich kid's dad "works for Halliburton," a leftist's diversity statement reads the same as Halliburton's 10:00 57:59. And he holds it up as an example of a subject nobody wants covered, crediting Janine Garofalo for talking about Halliburton and Cheney when it wasn't fashionable 1:13:39.
