Benefits of Double Agent Operations
7. Taking the Opposition's Money
Spying can be a lucrative business. Few of us would ever consider risking our lives and freedom by betraying our country for money, no matter how much, but venality is live and well in America and should never be underestimated.
The willingness of an adversary service to pay our double agents large amounts of money is a good indicator of how deeply we have set the hook.
One of the many good things about double agent operations is that they tend to finance themselves--with a lot leftover in some cases.
