Whenever the government does anything the first thing I look for is whose pockets are getting lined. I know guys who work in sales to the government, and stuff that I have made has been sold to governments (though I am no salesman myself). This is more than a theoretical concern to me: I've seen it up close. Even if the money goes to "a school" they're going to waste it on some boondoggle tech or paying some guy's cousin to repaint.
