Why do that when they can award the contract to a friend's company to slap a 30¢ sticker covering every logo, and charge the government $100/sticker, plus $160/hr/worker in the field, 2hr/sticker minimum, and pay the ~~employees~~ wages slaves below minimum wage because they're "contractors"?

Hmmmmmm... I'm a Canadian living in the UK. The Muskrat likes efficiency, and giving money to foreign nationals to fuck over Americans. I might be able to make a bit of side-hustle money while I watch the Republic implode!
