Well, DHS sure as hell can't purchase them right now. They have to let the uproar die down about the MRAP's first.

And, this is one of the problems that is going to continually happen when government is so intimately tied to a local economy, national economy, and GDP. Any cut in spending is going to negatively effect a politician locally, and a Party nationally as the overall economy drops.

Since most politicians are more concerned with their re-election campaigns, covering their asses takes a more prominent role than proper decision making.
