Two points are of interest to me in the story.  The amount of money
sloshing about in the program was huge.  That one official only took
$100k would be remarkable.

Besides, corporations do not like being held accountable for bribery &
kickbacks, but the practice is common.  Such behavior is only abhorrent
when it occurs in the public sector.
