and they're still hiring.
Shameful indeed. Is this a new thing with Government contractors?

no. been going on for centuries, here and elsewhere. indian agents when the removals went on, shoe and uniform contractors during the civil war...that's just here. other countries, it's the same way. you get a govt contract, and you're on easy street. and if you're disabled even partially, the odds just went up that you'll get a contract. look at the guy who claimed an 'army' injury, and he received it playing football. but he gets a 25% bump for that.
