    It isn’t that simple. Standards are set and there are punishments governments can use if things aren’t followed. Your stuff broke early? You are banned from bidding in this area for the next decade. Project is delayed? We are paying you 80% of what is agreed upon. You are constantly causing problems? We will write a spec that is so specific to your main competitor that you can’t possibly meet it.

    The system is not perfect but it isnt as bad as people might think.
