Consider the source of policy makers that make these
decisions, are clueless to networks and infrastructure
themselves. They fail to understand any costing
metrics
by adding another loop of useless people to he cycle
at
the expense of everyone, which will in the long run
be damaging to the economy of those companies who will
then move those centers offshore to remove the DHS
from
their loop, which causes job loss and skill base
destruction beyond what it already is in the US.

My vote on this proposal is no and contact my gov
rep and complain.
