It looks as if the Slashdot commenters agree with me. They must have
had some experience with contracting with the govt in the past. I
wonder how this will figure in with the desire of Obama to cut the
consulting projects and restrict them to employees and also cut the
number of firms of consultants they have. If he does that, then this
will be a huge clusterf*ck of a mess; if he doesn't then it will be
gravy time at least as big as the Y2K period for consulting and you will
have a lot of govt employees who are close to retirement leaving early
and taking the consulting jobs for big bucks. The cost of this whole
project will be astronomical and when you add that to the Healthcare and
the prior and new Stimulus plans and the Fannie and Freddie funding
brouhaha and, God forbit, Cap and Trade, the bills for our future
generations are going to be beyond belief - and this is all supposed to
save big bucks and creat jobs. I can see this project creating jobs but
then how in the heck (see, I can show a little class at times) is this
all going to be funded as well as all the entitlements Zero has in
mind. I would like to say this ain't gonna happen without huge tax
increases on everybody, not just the rich that Zero wants to milk like
an ATM machine.
