Democrats and Labor Unions see this as a union busting and political favortism? Surprise, surprise, surprise.

How about looking at it as a means to save money and even perhaps get a job done more efficiently? Keep in mind that the private companies who win those contracts hire people to do the jobs too. The federal government might be the largest employer in the U. S., but that does not mean it is the most efficient one, or the cheapest.
