The president's helicopter

Lockheed Martin wins presidential helicopter contract

From the article:
    The $6.1 billion contract to buy 23 high-tech, high-security aircraft, is relatively small in the military budget. But it is emblematic of two important issues: the outsourcing of American jobs and the question of how open the U.S. military market is to foreign contractors.
$6.1 billion works out to about $60 that each American household will pay.
