You quickly see we contract out all sorts of stuff that it doesn't make sense for government to do. So it's far more nuanced than an article explaining how one firm has a bunch of dubious contracts.


I get it's an easy sales pitch for the simple minded, but can we at least agree that a large portion of government contracting is probably necessary and good? And blanket statements about huge cuts to government contracting are either deceitful or naive?
That may be true if you had a government you could trust.

Also, I think it's probably something you could gauge, to a degree, if it's being overdone.
