Obamacare Website Builder Manages 25% of Section 8 Housing
Breitbart ^ | 11/27/13 | Wynton Hall

Posted on 11/27/2013 5:00:40 PM PST by Nachum

The Canadian-based company principally responsible for building the busted Obamacare website also bags $50 million a year managing the technology governing payments for over 25% of America's Section 8 low-income apartments and houses.

According to a Newsweek investigation, CGI Federal, which stands for Conseiller en Gestion et Informatique, has a stock market value of $11.6 billion. "American taxpayers are among the main drivers of earnings at CGI," states the Newsweek report.

CGI Federal Senior Vice President Toni Townes-Whitley was a Princeton University classmate of First Lady Michelle Obama and donated to President Barack Obama's reelection campaign and the Obama Victory Fund.

CGI Federal, which billed taxpayers $290 million for building the broken Obamacare federal website, is now enmeshed in a legal battle over allegedly running a scheme to thwart Housing and Urban Development (HUD) rules by setting up a shell company. The whistleblower lawsuit, filed by former HUD manager Benjamin Ashmore, "alleges he was fired in 2011 when he objected to behind-the-scenes proposals to skirt HUD restrictions."

"Being at CGI was like peering behind the curtain and realizing that the Wizard of Oz was just a charlatan...behind the curtain, greed, deception and profits replaced common sense and ethical obligations to clients," said Ashmore.

Some forensic accountant needs to see who or what companies this company writes checks to.

I’ll bet one of their main missions is to launder money to and for Democrats.

And the money they launder is our own tax money.

I've come to the conclusion that many or maybe all companies doing business with the democrat party...are either paying them off or in fact are actual shell companies for the sole purpose of laundering tax payer dollars to various liberal / progressive organizations...

How do so many liberal / progressive affiliated companies seem to have an endless stream of cash...?

That is the foundational question.

They produce no product in the marketplace, and their chief spokepersons always seem to land a job in one of their orbits.

Many years ago, some large foundations were taken over by Progressives, and that probably got the ball rolling.

The rise in the amount of "grants" given out by Federal and State governments is incredible, and a lot of that is just used against us. The whole Dept. of Education is a prime example. It was never needed on a Federal level, yet no one can stop it.

I don't know, but I'll bet my next SocSec deposit it had some connection to the Clinton Crime Family.

CGI Federal...hmmmm.

Isn’t this the company that Valerie Jarrette’s daughter and son-in-law are employed by??? Nepotism.

Valerie has a record of being a slum-lord, herself.

I LOVE hearing and reading more about this ugly munchin in the alternative news.

Benghazi Barry couldn’t wipe his ass without a crack to follow—Jarrette is really the POTUS-—(note to self: must change my tagline.)
