Well, I don't think that's fair. Millennium wasn't coerced into taking this project on, they obviously thought they could deliver the requirements (regardless of how high those specifications were) and make a profit. They accepted the business risk, and any failure in that regard is theirs and theirs alone.

If the government deserves blame, it is for choosing to work with Millennium instead of someone with more stable financial backing.
