That's not necessary called corruption.
These veteran private vendors just happened to know the road leading to a signature vs new competitors who are still learning the ropes.
The more important piece here is that the government ends up not owning anything because it farms out everything to the private, including Government land, critical govt function.
If you think that everything will be done correctly and the critical function won't get abused well then um.... You're looking at things unfold in real time.
It's interesting that:
In the US, people want to protect themselves from the government.
In the EU, people want the government to protect them.
Very profound mindset that leads to the difference in attitudes.
