Choices about budget priorities are arguably the most important
made by the federal government, profoundly affecting the well-being
of citizens. Bruce Jansson documents how presidents from FDR to
Clinton have made ill-advised choices that wasted trillions of
dollars. Going beyond charges of corruption or bureaucratic waste,
the book is an eye-opening expos? revealing innumerable useless
projects (military as well as civilian), unnecessary tax
concessions, and the use of interest payments to cover deficit
spending, among other costly mistakes. Using Office of Management
and Budget projections through 2004, Jansson shows how the madness
continues -- and how an informed electorate can put an end to
it.
