I haven't looked at the numbers but I consider this a movement that needs to start locally.
When it comes to waste, the devil is in the details. Look at the US Government budget breakdown and it's hard to see, but I think if people were interested enough to look into specific projects that are in front of their eyes on the daily, progress could be made. Citizens groups could ensure that best-practice competitive bidding processes were followed.

yup, makes sense. the accountability is harder to prove at the federal level, but should be more obvious at local levels.
