I wouldn't really say that, but GPL bad for the public if the government decides to release ONLY GPL'd software.
GPL is like socialism... everyone can benefit, but nobody can profit.
With BSD/GPL2, everyone can benefit from the government work, but those that expand on the government work are allowed to sell the software for profit, building companies, creating jobs. Sure you can profit from GPL software, but only by selling support and services, not by improving the software.
