"Stiglitz notes that in 2007 private security guards working for firms like Blackwater and Dyncorp were earning up to $1,222 a day or $445,000 a year. By contrast, an Army sergeant earned $140 to $190 a day in pay and benefits, a total of $51,100 to $69,350 a year."
This shows that private military contractors get paid emensly more than soldiers in the army. This also shows that army is not a good place to make money.
