[QUOTE="DDD, post: 446805, member: 35"] It's a shame that government is too huge for monitoring. Obviously employees can't jeopardize their jobs in this tought economy trying to help save taxpayers money. Obviously those who are serving their own self interests are not going to help save taxpayers money. There's no way politicians are going to, or have time to, explore the accumlation of "small" patterns of wasteful spending Heck they don't often know about the waste in their own backyard because...ta da...they haven't worked in the lower levels of government. In my Pollyanna mind I would love to think that in each State there are a few honestl to the core people who understand that every buck counts and that they could get together to find all the missing millions or billions frittered away in operations. Alas it's a shame that taxpayers are so close to powerless except occasionally grabbing headlines. Sigh. DDD [/QUOTE]
