It's an interesting statement but if taken at its face value, we should have all been a lot more worried about December 21st, 2012 and the Mayan Calendar ending.

Disclaimer: I'm a developer at OpenGov.

The city of Los Angeles' financial data is also up on the OpenGov platform. https://losangeles.opengov.com

It's a positive trend for governments to share their data and be more transparent with their citizens.
