Transparency requirements served as a deterrent, contributing to low rates of fraud, waste, and abuse of taxpayer funds.
Spending transparency became institutionalized in some states and at the federal level. Congress and the White House both have proposed Recovery-style transparency to track spending for all federal contracts, grants, and loans.
These two are huge outcomes. The amount of money wasted by our government is unbelievable. This at least makes me feel like they want to do something about it. I agree with True and what they posted.

I’ve seen first hand millions of wasted dollars that civilian taxpayers are forced to pay while serving overseas in Afghanistan. Its very sickening.

Dare to ponder..
