As a defense contractor for 20 years, I know that the only reason you get a sole source contract is if the gov't has justified that you are indeed a sole source.

Otherwise, the United States government would have to outsource that job to some other country, like for instance, Germany or France.... We all know what "fans" of outsourcing the Democrats have demonstrated themselves as. They absolutely hate it.

From 20+ years in defense I would have to modify that to...
"As a defense contractor for 20 years, I know that the only reason you get a sole source contract is if the gov't has justified that you appear to be a sole source.

Agreed, and I had to fill out reams of paper and justification, plus lawyer review, if I wanted to sole-source a contract. It's not easy, nor should it be.
