    I feel like the government is often a quest giver. The executive branch will let all of these companies run free so long as they do some project for the government on occasion. Like the NSA server deal with Microsoft. This is of course even more true with defense contractors, which get absurd contracts to “keep engineers trained” and the government tries to give the Mail Truck contract to Northrop-Grumman.
