Yet They Need More?

Friday 23 December 2011 - Filed under Uncategorized

Not even government can’t tell you how much money they spend, yet we’re expected to believe that they somehow need more? From the GAO:

The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) cannot render an opinion on the 2011 consolidated financial statements of the federal government, because of widespread material internal control weaknesses, significant uncertainties, and other limitations.

As was the case in 2010, the main obstacles to a GAO opinion on the accrual- based consolidated financial statements were: (1) serious financial management problems at the Department of Defense (DOD) that made its financial statements unauditable, (2) the federal government’s inability to adequately account for and reconcile intragovernmental activity and balances between federal agencies, and (3) the federal government’s ineffective process for preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Two years in a row government has been both unwilling to decide on a budget, and it can’t adequately relay to the American people how much of our money they’re spending, yet they insist that they need more? How the fuck would they know?
