It's a very common practice and has to be done, since there is a percentage of federal business that has to be set aside for each favored group. There are billion-dollar companies out there that use such pass-through companies to get fed. contracts, pay them 1% or whatever fee for no work whatsoever other than lending their name and status and then do the work or sub it out to the lowest bidders. It's not the businesses' fault. It's the government's for creating this musical chairs game for competing for contracts.
