A $2 billion minimum size for a vendor getting a $10 billion contract is perfectly reasonable.

- bilbo0s 8y agoMore than reasonable. Not awarding the contract to an organization with the requisite scale would be cause for investigating the process. In my mind, the likelihood is that people would complain no matter who got this contract. If it went to Microsoft, the article would be about all the high ranking contacts between Microsoft and the Pentagon. As a pragmatic matter, any organization with the expertise and scale to realistically execute this contract will have deep connections with the Pentagon. At several levels.
- Cthulhu_ 8y agoYup, and same with Google, with the extra spookiness that has been surrounding Google for a while. And Facebook, but then there'd be a riot.
