Invest money in buying politicians (lobbying) and you'll get a ton of government contracts. What's that? Startups don't have money to waste buying politicians? Gee, I wonder why they can't get these big contracts that constantly go to unqualified companies (healthcare.gov anyone?) and pay orders of magnitude above the actual cost of building a product ... yeah, it's a total mystery.
