“A big reason why the government is inefficient and ineffective is because Washington has outdated technology, with federal workers having better computers at home than in the office. This startling admission came Thursday from Peter Orszag, who manages the federal bureaucracy for President Barack Obama.” [The Hill]
“It’s time to bring government into the 21st century,” Orszag said. “Information technology has the power to transform how government works and revolutionize the ease, convenience and effectiveness by which it serves the American people.”
How rich is that? The Feds have crummy computers! Maybe that’s why the United States Postal Service is underwater. As reported last July – “The Government Accountability Office will testify …. that the postal service has been added to the list of government agencies at high risk for financial failure.” [Market place]
