    What Is DHS Preparing For

    DHS is buying a lot of supplies specifically designed for warfare. Do they know something we don't?

    Stimulus part 2?
    If a man were behind four months on his mortgage and was talking to you about his plans to build an addition on his home you would think him daft and delusional. But in Washington, ignoring a current crisis to discuss grand dreams is called “boldness” and “vision.”

    I'd do some research into how many of these vendors are related to those who approve Purchase Orders.
    Always follow the money.

    No, they are not tanks but what does DHS need with 2700 armored vehicles? What are they planning for?

    Maybe they are planning to have almost one light armored vehicle per county, in case they need one.

    Or maybe this is the domestic army that Obama talked about during his election campaign.

    Today, Big Sis is talking about how the sequester is having an effect on passenger check in delays. How many TSA agents could be paid with the cost of a billion bullets and 2700 armored vehicles.

    Budget bloat, all it is. Government agencies measure influence and power on the size of their budget and they have to use it or lose it. No dark conspiravy just bureacrats shoring up their budgets.

    It's easy to think they are planning for something or up to something nefarious, but I suspect it's just another way to spend money.

    And as far as that goes, there are probably worse ways to spend it.
