Soon they will just change the contract rules and the definition of “Federal contractor” so that all businesses fall under it.
All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.
-- Benito Mussolini
Maybe, but they can’t change a contract already in place except to cancel it, which they can do for virtually any reason. They cannot increase the cost by adding requirements and not paying for the extra costs incurred by the contractors. If they cancel a contract, then recompete or reissue, there still has to be a cost analysis and justification. This is why our administration is, frankly, nothing more than a bunch of power-mad AA idiots. They really don’t know what they are doing.
