At a conference a couple of years ago someone described our job as auditors was to “speak truth to power.” While I have tried to do that I have come to the conclusion that most in government only hear what they want to hear.
This weekend while attending the Iowa Freedom Summit and listening to about a dozen presidential hopefuls, one comment made really struck a cord. Carly Fiorina, former CEO of Hewlett Packard said we must fundamental reform government.
After being involved in government myself for almost a decade, I’m in complete agreement. Not small incremental change but complete reform. What we are doing is not working!
