The current reports by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) state that the U.S. isn't prepared to handle disasters like 9/11 and lacks an effective way to track $88 billion doled out to help rebuild the Gulf Coast after last year's killer hurricanes.
The government has no place to collect data on how and where 23 agencies are spending their share of the $88 billion Congress has allocated for Gulf Coast recovery. Taxpayers and hurricane victims also should be able to find out how the money's being spent, the report said.
Now who do you suppose doesn't want us to know how the money is spent and who benefits?
