caltrans and california gov ... just way too corrupted

  Accepting a lower bid isn't an example of corruption. This is the equivalent of buying a startup's product on the chance they figured out how to provide value more cheaply. That's not corruption; that's basic market forces.

  Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    in this case the administrators are probably not malicious, they are thinking, "I'm doing society a solid... I should be entitled to a due". It's only malicious if they actually have a modicum of introspection.
