I hate that hundreds of millions of dollars (or more) is spent every year on things which we can't even know about.  And I'm not talking about national security items.  I'm talking about some senator that wants to give someone a million dollars for some pet project.


I originally saw this on rcfox's blog.  But, it seems like a good idea to me as well.

I don't know a lot about Jim DeMint, but I like this petition.


I think it's time we at least found out HOW our money is being spent.

One of the objections I have (amongst many) is that right now, I don't even get to see what the government spends money on.


For those who want to actually read the petition, here's the link:

Scroll down to S.RES.123 (currently item 8)


I don't know why the petition showing up isn't working.  Here's the link to sign the petition:
