Nah, I won't say anything. I'll get banned.
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment

Mostly its BS to get your attention - have seen it happen when infra support was coming back in house and no-one from the supplier wanted to work in a gov organisation.
Finding this the hardest time I've had in contracting (5yrs) to look for jobs, and the crap agents spout never ceases to amaze me! Another few weeks and I'm thinking of taking a permy position for a year or two to ride it out - just be a nice break from the tossers!Comment
