The road to hell is paved with good intentions. These programs, while perhaps conceived with good intent, are nothing more than opportunities for graft.
I look at them in the same vein as Elizabeth warren lying about her heritage to get special treatment. Everyone sucks at the teat and no one cares. I know of many small businesses that are ostensibly owned by women or minorities and get these kinds of government payments. Meanwhile, the real people running the companies are middle aged white men. I used to be offended, but I admire them for milking a broken system now.

Fed Gov has "set asides" for veteran, minority, female, disadvantaged small businesses. Some of these small businesses simply take a cut then subcontract to a large business.
This practice is older than dirt and should shock no one.
