The corporate criminals in Communist (like) nations only get $70M to steal, so there's not enough left to finish the project and they go to jail.

Here, they get half a billion so there is enough to kludge together something that sort of works most of the time, so they get to keep the loot, are hailed as "job creators", and get another, even bigger contract.
