Yep, your right Robert. Nothing like the bright lights of TV cameras to make a bureaucrat do the right thing. Or at least get them to lying about what they've done.
You are probably right too in that NY will squirm and wiggle and lie so they can exploit rather than serve their citizens. It reminds me of conversations here on this forum from about three years ago. There was a company from New York that was bragging about all the money they were going to make by exploiting the online records.
They called the rest of us fools for not joining them in the 21st Century. We were called luddites who stood in the way of progress and profit. They assured us that treating the American people as a comodity was the wave of the future. They called us alarmists when we suggested the people might not agree so readily to beign treated as bushels of wheat or sides of bacon.
CMS intended to profit by becoming major dealers; exploiting the peoples records. Their profits were soon taken away by more efficient traffickers in the "public records". They left many independent abstractors holding a bagfull of unpaid invoices. They just closed up shop and skulked away.
New York won't find it so easy to hide from the network spotlight that is on them. The bureacrats failure to protect the peoples records has already left people of New York holding a bagful of broken promises and shattered identities.
