Unaccountable Congress: It Doesn't Add Up Joseph J. Dioguardi Cpa 2010 edition

When Joe DioGuardi ran for Congress in 1984, he didn't fashion himself as a modern-day prophet. But after two terms as the first practicing Certified Public Accountant ever elected to the U. S. Congress, he had learned enough about the federal government's budgeting, accounting, and reporting gimmicks to predict today's financial crisis and spiraling national debt. He published Unaccountable Congress: It Doesn't Add Up in 1992 to warn the public about America's out-of-control spending and borrowing and founded the nonprofit organization Truth In Government to educate Americans about the growing fiscal unsustainability of the United States. After the fallout from the financial meltdown in 2008, DioGuardi decided to update the book. In this new edition, he traces events since 1992 that have directly contributed to today's economic crisis-from its roots in misguided financial legislation and lack of oversight and political accountability through massive increases in government spending and national debt. He outlines ways to set the government's financial record straight so that we can work our way out of a crisis that is hurting every American.
