If all companies that deal with governments should be sued for going over budget or charging too much after a contract was set in place, then federal contractors would all be in court.
- paulgb 14y agoThere's a difference between going over budget and systematically overcharging. A major government contract should have provisions for the former, but if someone systematically overcharges they should be in court.
- aptwebapps 14y agoNot all government contracts are the same. Many of them have provisions for going over budget.
- fleitz 14y agoIt's an issue of charging for a service that was not provided, doing something like this is called fraud when done intentionally. An officer of the company knowing about the issue and not doing anything about it would generally be the nail in the coffin.
