Uncle Sam's Computer Glitches

Washington has had more than a decade of costly computer blunders where you paid the bill. The FBI recently scrapped a $170 million computer program that simply didn't work as promised. The IRS has a $1.7 billion computer modernization project that is over budget and 15 months late. The IRS had to ask Congress for an extra $388 million last year. The FAA has doubled its cost estimates to $1.69 billion for a new computer system. (CNN)
