This is very ironic. IIRC when the EELV rockets were bidding for first launch batches, Boeing used some insider price information to win the majority for Delta IV. There was a big lawsuit about that and Lockheed Martin's Atlas V ended up getting more launches.
The US Government attempted to create competition and a "market" with two competing launch providers. Boeing didn't play fair, and it was a big scandal. Finally when everything was put in proper order,the EELV providers couldn't compete with foreign launchers on the commercial market (commercial use was envisioned to lower costs for government launches as well). So the two competitors merged their rocket operations to form ULA.
So despite the best efforts of the government, they just couldn't get the independent providers and free market thing to work.
But now SpaceX comes along. It's offering just what the government has been trying to create for decades.
Yet SpaceX has to sue the government, to get to play on a level field.
So the government had trouble with the companies trying to tilt the field. Now a new company has a problem with the government.
