Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The federal government wastes your tax dollars worse than a drunken sailor on shore leave. The 1984 Grace Commission uncovered that the Department of Defense spent $640 for a toilet seat and $436 for a hammer. Twenty years later things weren't much better. In 2004, Congress spent a record-breaking $22.9 billion dollars of your money on 10,656 of their pork-barrel projects. The war on terror has a lot to do with the record $413 billion in deficit spending, but it's also the result of pork over the last 18 years the likes of: - $50 million for an indoor rain forest in Iowa - $102 million to study screwworms which were long ago eradicated from American soil - $273,000 to combat goth culture in Missouri - $2.2 million to renovate the North Pole (Lucky for Santa!) - $50,000 for a tattoo removal program in California - $1 million for ornamental fish research Funny in some instances and jaw-droppingly stupid and wasteful in others, The Pig Book proves one thing about Capitol Hill: pork is king!

Book excerpt: The former Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee asked that the General Accounting Office study the practice of earmarking federal revenues. As agreed with Committee staff, the objectives of GAO's study were to identify: (1) trends in earmarking and the features of earmarked revenues; (2) varying earmarking practices; and (3) factors for the Congress to consider when reviewing earmarking proposals. To identify trends in the use of earmarking, GAO examined annual governmental revenues at 3-year intervals from the end of fiscal year 1974 through fiscal year 1988. GAO used 1974 revenues as the starting point because that was the earliest year for which relevant data were available from OMB's budget tapes. Use of 3-year intervals permitted GAO to analyze major changes within the 14-year period and avoid temporary, year-to-year changes due to fluctuations in the economy. To identify the features of earmarked revenues, GAO examined these from four different perspectives: (1) their source (taxes or regulatory--"sovereign powers"--Revenues versus revenues from business-type operations); (2) the fund type (trust, special, general, etc.) to which they were applied; (3) the programs receiving the largest amounts; and (4) the agencies receiving the largest amounts. To identify varying earmarking practices, we (1) identified accounts where the earmarked amounts were cost-sharing payments from program participants and others where the earmarked amounts came from sources outside the program (not program participants) and (2) identified instances where the cost-sharing payments were earmarked for use by the programs and others where cost-sharing payments were deposited in Treasury's general fund.

Book excerpt: You're probably familiar with the earmarking of selective consumption taxes in your state--for example, gas tax revenues may be dedicated to highway funding. However, tax revenues don't always “stick” to the program that they're earmarked to. This chapter shows how earmarked taxes can serve to increase the size of state governments because funds can be moved from program to program. Key takeaways: (1) States may justify new revenue sources with the argument that they will fund worthy programs. A lottery may be implemented with the argument that its revenues will be used to increase education funding. (2) Every US state earmarks a percentage of its revenue. In 2005, Rhode Island earmarked just 4 percent of its revenue, compared to Alabama at 84 percent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presidential earmarks? Perhaps even more so than their counterparts in Congress, presidents have the motive and the means to politicize spending for political power. But do they? In Presidential Pork, John Hudak explains and interprets presidential efforts to control federal spending and accumulate electoral rewards from that power. The projects that members of Congress secure for their constituents certainly attract attention. Political pundits still chuckle about the “Bridge to Nowhere.” But Hudak clearly illustrates that while Congress claims credit for earmarks and pet projects, the practice is alive and well in the White House, too. More than any representative or senator, presidents engage in pork barrel spending in a comprehensive and systematic way to advance their electoral interests. It will come as no surprise that the White House often steers the enormous federal bureaucracy to spend funds in swing states. It is a major advantage that only incumbents enjoy. Hudak reconceptualizes the way in which we view the U.S. presidency and the goals and behaviors of those who hold the nation’s highest office. He illustrates that presidents and their White Houses are indeed complicit in distributing presidential pork—and how they do it. The result is an illuminating and highly original take on presidential power and public policy.

Download or read book Making Money Matter written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-11-30 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States annually spends over $300 billion on public elementary and secondary education. As the nation enters the 21st century, it faces a major challenge: how best to tie this financial investment to the goal of high levels of achievement for all students. In addition, policymakers want assurance that education dollars are being raised and used in the most efficient and effective possible ways. The book covers such topics as: Legal and legislative efforts to reduce spending and achievement gaps. The shift from "equity" to "adequacy" as a new standard for determining fairness in education spending. The debate and the evidence over the productivity of American schools. Strategies for using school finance in support of broader reforms aimed at raising student achievement. This book contains a comprehensive review of the theory and practice of financing public schools by federal, state, and local governments in the United States. It distills the best available knowledge about the fairness and productivity of expenditures on education and assesses options for changing the finance system.
