You are literally regurgitating the propaganda that led to this narrative.

Private sector alternatives don't grow their staff out of nothing. They come from the government agencies. They are trained by those. They don't become smarter or better at their job once their paycheck triples.

Instead, they are finally allowed to do their job. Because you learn fast that anything too novel will be killed by an upper level manager who drives a really nice car. Or the middle manager who wants that job. And, in the best cases, someone at the competition will suddenly have the same idea

Because politicians are Teflon. If government lab a or company b fucked up, someone else pays. If they succeed? American ingenuity so vote for him.

And this is intentional.
