What would you rather have.... $1000 given to some random person, who will then buy for example a computer with it? or give $1000 to the government who will then buy a $10 hammer for $1000 from some politician buddy's company?

I would rather it go to a Native Worker of the country than an imported computer.
You're using an extreme example as an excuse. Yes, there are examples of people buying goods that could be cheaper. walk into most Government offices, look at the quality of the equipment and the pay of the staff.
The $1,000 is more often someone wages. Who will then spend in their area.
