@053f521c Government software is the classic "stone soup" scenario. As long as everyone hoards everyone is hungry. If all governments would throw their scraps in the pot they would all be well fed.

NYC had some absurdly expensive thing called City Time which was a payroll and HR system. I think that was over 100M for one city. All cities need the same thing. Share the software. 

 @e7f7ab20 Nasty and I agree.
