Does it anger you enough to become more politically active than you are?

Answer 1

Of course, but then again, anything "not properly managed and controlled, [can result] in fraud, waste, and abuse."

Answer 2

Yeah, people need to be charged with "theft in office".  It's sad they can get away with all that c**p. The former mayor of Cleveland did nothing to help the city, but she sure as h**l bought her kids brand new 30K cars before they were even legal to drive... with the Cleveland tax money ment for offical business only

Answer 3

yes that does anger me this has been going on for many years the public just stands by and lets this happen

Answer 4

Unless you are running for the office all your doing is electing people like the ones that are already there. To really change the system you need new people and new ideas.  And no I am not an Obama supporter I think change is good, but I think you should know someting about the person you elect.

Answer 5

In my own personal belief is that the government is mostly right but when managed properly. To waste money is wrong but if the money was trying to be used for the good of us all then I think this event could be over looked to a degree. We can not forget that the government was made to protect or int rest and by right we the people have the power to remove those who are not working towards our best interest.

Answer 6

Yes, very angry.  I'm sure there are countries that have nothing but fraud, but we need to work on this.  I hope that the people involved in this were fired, but knowing how difficult it is to fire government workers, I really doubt they were.

Answer 7

No more than the usual waste and corruption that is prevalent in governments all over the world...and I'm far too cynical to think that I can affect any changes at the national level.  Nay, my involvement is as low as it can go...the neighborhood where I live.

Answer 8

Absolutely, we are the citizens MUST HOLD OUR POLITICIANS, GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES ACCOUNTABLE.  Nothing less is just insane.
