[quote:travesty of justice 2206413:MV8xOTY1ODAwXzMyOTg3NjQ4XzdDMjEzMUM3] So the government demands honest dealings? Why doesn't the government deal honestly with its citizens? It is nearing the time for all 300+ million people to sue the government for being so dishonest and corrupt. Oh, wait.. we cannot sue the government... darn!! [/quote]
Original Message
Justice Department officials joined a whistle blower lawsuit and alleged that The Gallup Organization, a major polling firm, intentionally overestimated the amount of time it would take to complete a job for the government and was paid accordingly.
“Contractors who do business with the federal government must honor their obligations to provide honest services and products,” said U.S. Attorney Ronald C. Machen Jr. in a statement on the lawsuit. “Working with relators and federal investigators, we will do all that we can to act against those who illegitimately bill the American taxpayers.”
