Even more reason for term limits. Once our congresscritters stop being motivated by re-election and start being motivated to do what they were elected to do then we'll start seeing change in Congress. Until then, it's gonna be business as usual - more hogs at the trough.

Leftists and very small children don't seem to be able to understand that the Government isn't there to "fix" the economy, anymore than a tick is there to fix your dog.~Oftencold

The whole government is a scam. If an employee of a state or federal medical facility has a child with asthma, they can easily obtain medication by stealing it from the supply room instead of going to the ER or pharmacy.
If an employee knows or becomes close to a vet or his hospitalized family member, they give them tons of freebies when they leave to go home. Stuff others are not given unless issued.
I would not doubt we are using an inferior product because of favoritism for a company over another.
