I found this old post.
"Most people know how Halliburton/KBR (The 'K' in KSL) uses their political connections to rip-off US taxpayers. Now, Bechtel (partner in LANS) and Shaw Group Inc (the 'S' in KSL) have come under intense investigations in connected with the Katrina cleanup.
Think about it for a moment. Bechtel, KBR, and Shaw - all companies with ethical problems. And now, all three are involved in the day-to-day operations at LANL.
It appears that privatization has opened LANL's doors to the wolves."
And that is exactly what happened. A complete rip-off the of the US taxpayers, tremendous damage to the complex, moral at an all time low. Way to go. However a number of managers have made out very very well. How do they feel now that it is clear that it was just a giant con game all along?

It was run with pristine holiness when UC ran it!! It was actually divine intervention.
Sounds like someone who had it good for so long and now is about to lose it all because you were all so blind.

Great, POS if of the his meds again. We have to listen to his drivel for a week or so before there is an intervention and he is forced to back on the mass of psychotropics.
Is it safe to say that The University of California did a better job at running LANL than LANS; and for less money? Hello, anybody?
If you were there, you know that UC didn't "run" anything. It gave LANL its benefits package and HR policies, and then disappeared for decades. When it reappeared around the time of Wen Ho Lee, it was shocked, shocked! to find the LANL management had screwed up do badly.
The only significant evidence that UC was involved with LANL in the 90's is that new employees had to swear allegiance to a flag with a bear on it.

Indeed and that is why we lost the cold war and the labs where such failures for past 50 years. Thank god we changed that and things are soo much better now. We can all agree how horrible it was when UC was in charge and how much better the nation is now that we are run by a greedy and corrupt corporation. This makes total sense.
