I think a state government is well within its rights to dictate how best to save and spend its money. If a person works for a state government he or she is agreeing to work within the confines dictated by government policy. Similarly, a corporate IT department dictates what can and cannot be run on its network. Are you suggesting that an employee should be free to make those decisions without regard to what corporate or government policy dictates?
Besides that, the NH legislature isn't telling government offices that they are required to use OSS. It is telling them to consider it as part of the decision-making process in order to best evaluate the options in order to find the most cost-effective choice. Your argument is off-target.

That's not clever; that's coincidence.
But still apropos.
