governments should be held to the same rules public institutions are facing right now. Sarbox and all. Sure it will cost em lots of money to be compliant, but they will be much more transparent in their actions.



As much as i hate going through the process of certification and sarbox and others at my work, i do see some benefits coming out of it...

I've also read about far more cases where GOOD was actually done.
As I said before, there are bad apples in every organization.

I've always been of the belief that if all they care about is the money then they aren't quality people. We hear this with trustees all the time, it should be people who care, not people who want an extra paycheque.

This is why I donate nothing to anybody, and I never will. Fuck charities, you can't convince me that the money I donate is doing what it should be doing. How about all that crap with the United Way just a little while ago? Ugh.

"BUT IT'S GOING TO A GOOD CAUSE!" Some of it, yeah, but not nearly the amount that should be. Hey Mr. CEO, how's your $1,100 Aeron chair? Oh how about that new Lexus? Boy howdy that charity of yours sure does a lot of good eh!

If anything it being a government agency makes it more likely to waste money IMHO.
