It’s the money of the people, to fund the government, who works for the people.
It is our right to know how it is being spent and agree upon the spending. Send the budgeters to the school of Ramsey, because boy are they terrible at their job. Maybe assign a specific amount appropriate for each agency based on their duties. If they fail to budget it appropriately, they must request additional support and provide a reasonable case as to how much and why they need it.
@Bekah added: and yearly audits.
