my apologies, apperently I need to clarify. It's because that's a big overstep. There is a big difference between telling the DoD we don't want to do buisness with you, to telling the DoT you don't want to do buisness with them. Refusing buisness from the DoD or the Pentagon shouldn't impact your ability to do buisness with the other branches. It's abuse of position.
This isn't "oh my company doesn't want to do buisness because you won't agree to give us the keys" this is a "ok so myself and my parent company along with any affiliates with us are not going to be doing buisness with you for not giving us the keys to the kingdom."
That's my mentality of it anyway, I don't think it violates the first amendment but, but I still don't think it's right.
