U.S. military spending could soon hit a record $1.5 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that have routinely price-gouged the government, according to investigations.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed eight straight audits.

Hello???
The Defense Department was funded with a budget of nearly a trillion dollars, but it is running out of cash, according to three U.S. officials, a former defense official, outside experts and two congressional staff members.
The Pentagon is running out of money
Defense officials asked for more than $67 billion in supplemental funding. But Congress hasn’t approved the money yet, in part because of frustrations over information about the war with Iran, sources say.
