MINORITY-OWNED AMERICAN COMPANY JUST WANTS TO BE TREATED FAIRLY – THEY PLAY BY THE RULES, PRODUCING HIGH-QUALITY PRODUCTS AT THE LOWEST COST, YET THEY STILL DO NOT WIN GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS – WHEN IT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE, FOLLOW THE MONEY!

Corruption in the American procurement process has probably been going on since George Washington was receiving provisions from King Louie to fight King George. Even then, there probably was a middleman syphoning off a percentage for himself or guiding procurement funds to a relative. Nothing has really changed since America’s [ … Read More]
