Let's have a change of pace

#1 Post by flockofseagulls104 » Mon Jun 19, 2017 12:10 pm

If they can follow through on it, here's a good thing the Trump Administration is proposing.

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/19/jared-ku ... on-dc.html

If some of the tech CEO's can get past their ideology issues and do what's best for the country, and if the administration can actually do it without shooting their own foot, this would be a very good thing. Maybe they can bring in Carly Fiorina to help.

Now let's see what the talking points of the 'resistance' are.... I am sure they've been disseminated to the useful idiots by now.

Jared Kushner sounds like he's been listening to Jon Ossoff.

I'm sure Jon will be glad to help out next week when he arrives in DC>

Our Lord Jon Ossoff, first of his name, knows everything. So I assume you are in support of the Trump Administration's efforts to modernize government IT? You'll be kicked out of the 'resistance' for agreeing with ANYTHING they say or do! And furthermore, you'll never be able to visit the campus of Berkeley or The Evergreen State College.

Well, it's going to meet resistance from me as the first round of recommendations was to get rid of their mainframes. Some things simply require mainframes and others have a much lower cost than running thousands of little servers.

Public-private partnerships are all the rage right now. We in southern Indiana have a somewhat dim view of them right now. It's only one data point, but it's a fairly powerful one. Much like the Kansas economic experiment, poor execution can lead to spectacular failures, even if the core idea is good.

BTW, I applaud Flock for actually doing what most of my conservative friends won't even do, and trying to find positive things that administration is doing. We may disagree, but I would rather disagree this way, as opposed to the normal trench-dug shouting matches.
