Five of the most outdated IT system in the government
The Defense Department uses floppy disks.
The IRS refunds are generated is running on a 1950s “assembly language code
The Social Security Administration has rehired former employees who were some of the few that knew how to operate the complex system that determines retirement benefits and eligibility. The system is 31 years old and made up of 162 subsystems, with some running on a early 1960s-era programming language called COBOL.
From the State Department:
GAO noted the main challenges with State's aging technology is “information security and infrastructure concerns
Now get this:
But GAO said that it is replacing unsupported software with a new version, “which is also not supported"
Did you get that? They are replacing unsupported software with unsupported software. WTF????
So who turns down funding for infrastructure? Who wants the country to fall apart so they can privatize everything and soak the American people?
Hint, it's not Democrats.
And you wonder why Hillary wanted her own stuff.
