Oil giant ExxonMobil has agreed to purchase the United States Military for $100 Million-trillion in a combined cash and stock purchase.

2. Don't see how this will be good for EM
Over the last 4 or 5 years, USMil has received something like $2000 billion in subsidies from the management and extortion giant, BushCo. But many analysts say BushCo is nearing collapse, due to a long series of bad business decisions, collapsing morale, faith-based accounting, and congenital idiocy on the part of its chief spokesman, G. Chimp.

If EM buys USMil, won't EM need to pay some of the operating budget for USMil themselves?
