The Government Can "Invest" Your Money Better Than You Can

» Special Report: Is US Chief Information Officer (CIO) Vivek Kundra a Phony? Dvorak Uncensored: General interest observations and true web-log.: "So what have we got so far from this person? Well, for starters we are looking at the Recovery.gov website that will cost the taxpayers around $18 million. This news was released recently. What websites costs $18 million? And that’s with no warrantee.

The incredibly popular Digg.com, one of the most advanced news gathering sites in the world was initially coded from scratch for between $1200-2500 according to one of its founders."


Fascinating story about the phony, self-promoting US CIO, hailed by the mainstream media as a "whiz kid." You'd think a whiz kid could launch a simple webiste for something south of $18M. And this guy is going to oversee our entire government's spending on information technology?
