A government board put together for the purpose of studying how to streamline the government was added to again, as executives from Motorola Solutions (NYSE:MSI), Adobe Systems (NADSAQ:ADBE), Symantec Corp (NASDAQ:SYMC), Cummins (NYSE:CMI) and Aetna (NYSE:AET) joined the entity.

The administration official releasing the information said the board will advise Obama on how to improve the government's efficiency and effectiveness.

I'm not sure why executives are taking time from their productive work to waste efforts on this, as what part of limiting the size of government doesn't Obama and the majority of politicians in Washington not understand.

They can't continue to kick the can down the road, as the length of the road is coming to an end, and someone has to make the right decisions for this country to economically survive.

Those named to the board are Aetna (NYSE:AET) Chairman Ronald Williams, Symantec (NASDAQ:SYMC) CEO Enrique Salem, OSI Restaurant Partners (OSI.UL) CEO Elizabeth Smith and Cummins (NYSE:CMI) CEO Tim Solso.

Motorola Solutions (NYSE:MSI) EPS, PT Lowered on More Disclosure

Motorola Solutions Inc. (NYSE:MSI) had their EPS estimate and price target lowered by Barclays (NYSE:BCS), citing several discrepancies in financial statements of the company.

Barclays says, "Modest Discrepancies Across Line Items Drives a Significant Step Down in EPS: In reviewing the company's historical pro-forma financial statements, a few discrepancies between our previously published estimates exist. While there was no one major inconsistency, modestly lower gross margins, higher opex, interest expense and taxes in totality drove a significant step down in EPS. Our new 2010, 2011 and 2012 EPS estimates are $1.94, $2.28, and $2.59, respectively vs. $2.59, $2.36, and $2.85, previously. As a result, our new price target is $41. We retain our -18x FY11 and -16x FY12 multiples."

Barclays reiterates an "Equalweight" rating on Motorola Solutions Inc. (MSI), which closed at $38.70, up $0.04, or 0.10 percent. Barclays lowered their price target on Motorola from $43 to $41.
