Oracle claimed to be providing a team of software engineers who were coding Oregon's state exchange. Oracle was much more than a vendor, it was a service provider.
Oracle executives flew out to Oregon 3 times, and on each occassion, made presentations that said the exchange was "72% done" and that if they would just wire them 53 million USD, everything would be done on time.
These were clear and deliberate lies, and as taxpayers, one should feel personally robbed by Oracle, regardless of the State of Oregon's overseeing the project.
