"Government 2.0 is an extraordinarily detailed and highly technical addition to the literature on government reform. The plan laid out in Government 2.0 challenges traditional paradigm about how to structure a government whose primary intent is service of its citizenry. Imholt’s principled focus on ensuring that government does this efficiently is evident in his recognition of the sacrifices that both conservatives and liberals must make to achieve that end. "
This summary is courtesy of the Charles Koch Institute which reviewed an earlier draft of this book. The internal review also commented: "objective approach has the distinct potential to unite those usual ideological opponents. " I wish to thank the Koch Institute for those words. This book deals with the larger issue that is not addressed in our public policy discussions. While people have become concerned with what government does, they are equally concerned with how the government performs its function. This book begins the arduous process of addressing that deficiency within our body politic. Specifically the book entails using technology to separate individual private information from government control returning it to the individual. It raises the bar on the need to re-evaluate exactly why our executive branch is so badly organized proposing how to decentralize Washington while improving service delivery. The book in effect analyzes what and how government services can be privatized in the best sense of the term, not as a means of eliminating the service, but to insure the service is delivered effectively, appropriately and with respect for the individual receiving the service. The second book will begin the process of detailing how the concepts in government 2.0 can begin to be both advocated and implemented.
