Actually I got my title from the film Aliens. Regardless, you need to get these misconceptions out of your head, you sound like some aging hippie here in the US would. You're the one not trying to understand why there this need exists for such specialized contractors in this day and age. Rather you dismiss them all as evil war profiteers or some nonsense.
I recognize the flaws and shortcomings of these companies, but I understand the need for them, and take pride in my work.
As somebody who probably has an interest in aviation I'm sure you've read about engineers like Kelly Johnson and Jack Northrop. Regardless of you think of the current CEOs and bosses of these companies, surely pioneers like them were worthy of some respect.
