I am not sure, but you may have misunderstood my point. The DOD has a measure, intentionally put in place, to obfuscate the use of funds. If it has a program to do this intentionally, of course it's going to have a problem with unintentional accounting issues, incompetence, lack of cohesive regulation, graft, etc. going on. What I am saying is that something with an intentional structure for black spending goes hand in hand with general bad accounting practices. Especially something as segmented as the DOD. The structure it's self implies incompetence and intent.
