Is this an example of how public sector services will be?

http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9221069/USA...

It seems everything that the government touches turns people away.

Update:

And the moon landing did exactly what for the US...the benefits please that we couldn't have done with simply orbit missions?

    No, it's an example of how ALL public sector services ARE and always have been EVERYWHERE in all of time.

    By the way, for the RETARDED out there I have a little primer:

    NASA "got us to the moon" by PAYING PRIVATE COMPANIES to make it happen and staying out of the way.

    Decades later, but mere months after it became legal to do so, PRIVATE COMPANIES using NO tax money achieved manned orbit on LESS money than ANY government ever needed to do the same.

    The government landed a man on the moon, privatized space efforts can't even achieve orbit... even with the governments money!

    Congradulations on being brainwashed by right wing media.

    To the brainwashed... the astronauts - most who had aeronautical engineering degrees, where on the floor at Locheed Martin every step of the way designing the thing.. the main designer was Werner Von Braun - who was snatched up in the GOVERNMENT operation paperclip and while working in a GOVERNMENT ROLE designed the moon program... along with his fellow Nazi rocket scientists. Oh I could go on and on bro..

    I think the right wingers were against this switch, it happened during Obama's watch. But look at the blackout Blackberry just had or the power failure on the East Coast a few years back, these things happen even in the private sector.

    I don't think that the government is really capable of managing anything.
