Report: The Pentagon has no idea how much money it
loses to improper payments
The Blaze – 6/14/2013
The GAO isn’t sure how much
money is lost to improper payments because, as the report explains, DOD
accounting practices are apparently unreliable.
From the report:
“… [the DOD's] long-standing
history of pervasive financial management weaknesses, coupled with problematic
sampling methodologies and the lack of adequate supporting documentation,
contributed to improper payment estimates that were not reliable.
“Things aren’t likely to
improve any time soon, either,” the Washington
Examiner’s Kelly Cohen reports, “because DOD has not fully addressed the
causes following 2009 audit, so the Pentagon remains ‘at risk of continuing to
make improper payments and wasting taxpayer funds.’”
READER COMMENT: Think about this–if you could not account for
1/1,000,000th of this amount, you might be facing CRIMINAL CHARGES by the
Internal Revenue Disservice! Think about that!!!! The government DEMANDS under
threat of CRIMINAL CHARGES…or WORSE (SWAT TEAMS WITH AR-15′S) that you be to
the penny with your reporting to them—
This is why the REAL Tea
Party . . . DEMAND a return to government by the consent of the governed and
fair/equitable/simple taxes PLUS a reduction in the absurd costs of the
Department of Offense and others! We can handle our own Defense, thank you–we
don’t need to be killing thousands half way around the world and wasting
Trillions of OUR CHILDREN’S future earnings! Screw this kind of mishandling of
our resources!
