[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 4024603, member: 7900"] That is a very limited "news" report. I'm not sure I would want to trust much of it. On the other hand, Congress' budget plans sometimes involve "continuing resolutions," which means that instead of creating a new budget for a fiscal year, they do a CR. With those, it involves "mandating" the agencies to purchasing the exact same products/services as they did the year before. So, if for instance, the Army bought 14 helicopters in the prior year, they have to buy 14 more, even though they may not need or want more. During the Obumba years, there were a number of agencies that were purchasing ammunition, so if a CR is involved, they have to buy the same amount again. [/QUOTE]
