selling the Government on the cheap

Along with all of the other problems it presents, this is probably the biggest patronage scheme of all time!

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14 — The Bush administration said today that it would place as many as 850,000 government jobs — nearly half the federal civilian work force — up for competition from private contractors in coming years.
The new policy can be enacted without Congressional approval. Just who do we think is going to get these contracts and these jobs, this money? We also know what the White House will say about anyone who opposes this plan to "save money."
