7. Yep, of course paying Blackwater USA $73,000,000 to guard the city
kinda took some of the money away from something that would be put to better use, say like a floodgate:eyes:

Blackwater USA sucked a lot of the resources that should have been used for infrastructure instead they apparently needed to protect the streets from the relocated citizens.

Blackwater USA was hired by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Not sure why they had the authority to hire them, but hey it's a job, right. Erik Prince of Darkness saw a chance to take of a perfect opportunity, and exert authority in a devastated city.
