all the government actually does most of the time (when it's not makework) is just hire someone to do it.
If that was it, I wouldn't have as big of a problem with it. But they usually have lots of "regulations" that in essence end up jacking up the price, as well as favoring certain individuals or companies. It should just be an open bid, and that would solve a bunch of the problems.
Yes, but that would defeat the purpose of those exact corporations paying lobbyists to invent the regulations to make them the only people who can successfully bid on the contract in the first place.
