OBAMA TOUTS 'MYUSA' PLAN TO MAKE GOVT. MORE LIKE GOOGLE (and track everything?)
Big Government ^ | 7/8/2013

Posted on 07/08/2013 4:42:59 PM PDT by markomalley

President Barack Obama announced Monday that he will bring more Silicon Valley tech experts into his White House to help devise a new government system called MyUSA to deliver “a smarter, more innovative and accountable government."

MyUSA will, among other things, auto-fill citizens’ personal information on government forms and provide real-time tracking of benefits.

Obama’s initiative carries echoes of Vice President Al Gore’s 1993 “reinventing government” plan that purportedly applied private sector solutions to public sector problems.

Whether Obama’s attempt to reboot public perceptions about his Administration’s bureaucratic failures and inefficiencies will succeed now five years into his presidency remains to be seen.

Furthermore, in the wake of the National Security Agency (NSA) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) scandals, it remains unclear whether Americans will enthusiastically support Obama’s decision to bring more Silicon Valley gurus into his White House like those used to develop the NSA's controversial PRISM system.

The Terminator: The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes on-line August 4th, 2013. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

Sarah Connor: Skynet fights back.

The Terminator: Yes. It launches its missiles against the targets in United States - mostly areas concentrated with Tea Party activists.

John Connor: Why attack our own? Aren’t they our friends now?

The Terminator: Because Skynet knows the Tea Party counter-attack will eliminate the Obama Administration over here in 2014.

Probably something like this happen...who knows...right Johnny?

It would do the opposite of what it claims, which is what we can count on from any of the “high minded” enterprises of big government and especially the Obamination. Innovation would be squelched as these web-uber-meisters would expect a patchwork of local websites, some of which are pretty fair, to be subject to some “regularization” scheme that will be conceived while smoking opium. Accountability? If there is a czar, he or she or it will be so busy as to be useless. No, the Obamination just wants bragging rights for control... kind of like Satan does, without caring how bad it gets messed up.

This will not end well.

The only government computer systems that seem to work are the ones that track us.

The dept of defense has been trying to do this for years with no success. They know this won’t work... It’s a govt jobs program. A massively wasteful one.
