| Tober said: You think Americans would be better of without an audit? An unconventional one this one is for sure, but that it is happening should be good no?

I think if you bring a chainsaw into surgery you won't be saving many lives...
An audit could be good. I don't think anyone would say that there isn't governmental waste. But a lot of these programs save lives by the thousands, especially in USAID. When lives are at stake, some degree of care is required. Something as simple as an aid pause could cause hundreds of thousands of babies to be infected with HIV.

These audits are not being performed with the degree of care required to simultaneously balance the important work these agencies do, and the necessity for auditing to combat potentially wasteful spending.
