This is once again another example of what happens when you privatize public services and remove public accountability. We've already talked about the dangers of Blackwater the American's privatizing of their military.
This story recently hit the news about contractors at the US embassy in Afghanistan. Most of the video clips are too raunchy for TV but the just of it is that the supervisors of the private security firm have been accused of being sexual deviants. Regularly holding drunken orgies for the past year and a half and demanding sex from new guards in exchange for promotions or preferred assignments.
Wait a minute. These are all men. Demanding sexual favors would mean gay sex. But I thought they didn't allows gays in the U.S. military. I guess that's another perk of privatization. Not that I have a problem with homosexuality. It's just demanding sex for promotions or preferred assignments whether it be gay or heterosexual is just plain wrong.

Somehow I don't think the Taliban would be doing this.
