Unfortunately, things are all dollar driven nowadays. Now, I believe in getting the best value for the taxpayers dollar, but a lot of decision makers seem to forget the value part. This usually results from someone making a decision who never spent any time in the military, or has advanced so far up the ladder they forgot what it's like to be in the troops.
