> Today we're convening the White House Forum on Modernizing Government to bring private sector and federal government leaders together in a discussion about new ways to use technology to streamline government operations, improve customer service, and maximize returns on information technology investments.

> Tomorrow, the White House will seek ideas from the public about how government can improve its use of technology at www.whitehouse.gov. I encourage everyone to contribute their ideas on how to make government perform better and help us deliver on the President’s commitment to change how business is done in Washington.

and though OT - I seem to recall Keating 
expressing a similar sentiment about Tax 
minimisation.
> Discussing Wall Street executives' reaction to his proposed new fees on major banks, the President delivered a simple message: "Instead of sending a phalanx of lobbyists to fight this proposal, or employing an army of lawyers and accountants to help evade the fee, I suggest you might want to consider simply meeting your responsibilities."
