We Expect More From our Government and Indeed, So Does our President!
By: Lance Winslow
Did you know that recently the Chinese government has done in audits of all their various agencies and you know what they found? They found billions, that’s right billions of Chinese yen stolen and they found lots of fraud. This is because they was no transparency in Chinese government and no accountability. And this is why I am so glad to live the United States of America.
Did you know that President Bush signed the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006? Do you know why? Because the American people demanded it and we want our representatives and our government to make sure that they do not waste the taxpayers money. This means that the United States government will have transparency and accountability to the American people.
When we look at the world and we see what is going on around; what we find is that the United States of America is setting the example across the globe for what government should be. And in doing so we find the Chinese government also doing the same thing. Although we are way ahead of the rest of the world in transparency in our government, it is good to see others following our lead and we do need to lead the world.
We need to take all that we are here and help the rest of the world come up a couple notches. Isn’t it great to live in the greatest nation ever created in the history of mankind? Isn’t it great to live in a nation where we are the government and we own the government? Isn’t great to live in the country where the government is transparent and accountable to us? I’m glad you think so too.
