This is what happens when you start contracting out services. Any business wishing to perform services for the public at public expense should be required to submit a bid and their performance and quality levels should at least be at the same level, or exceed that of the service they hope to replace. This is not a market driven result. When a government goes down this road they eventually suffer a decline in services. Why? Because a private business cannot continue to maintain the same standards and quality of service demanded by regulations without eventually increasing the costs. The only other alternative to increasing costs is to have politicians get rid of the regualtions that eat into their profits. Either way, the public suffers and business gets more of our tax money hiring incompetant people at minimum wages.
