. >> host: brenan sasso. >> guest: the letter mentions i'll proving the government's i.t., information technology, and so it claims that the federal government can reduce spending by more than a trillion dollars over the next ten years by upgrading i.t.. how is that possible? >> guest: well, certainly technology, itself, the benefit of technology is that it does save money in the long run. companies of their own freedom invest in technology so they can perform better, be efficient, provide better customer service, and get more customers. the government has to do like wise. various states have done this. the experience i have at virginia department of motor vehicles is exceptional. virginia as a state invested in technology, be a pro-business state, it's bipartisan, every governor did it for 20 years, the legislature does it, and it works. the federal government, i think, can do the same thing saying we have tremendous amounts of information, we provide the service whether it's to the veterans or medicare, or medicate, let's invest in the i.t. infrastructure to provide better service. t
