The public has a strong interest in government accountability. And there's always room for more sunshine and transparency in the halls and offices of our government. Whether we're talking about votes in Congress or wasteful government spending, accountability is important to the integrity of our system of self government.

With such a massive debt accumulating on the backs of American taxpayers, out of control spending and the continuous growth of government, Congress needs to act quickly to reform the way government funds are appropriated and managed. We need efficiency now more than ever. The more accountable government is, the more efficiently it will operate.

One way government can begin to sort out the mess and regain control of government spending is through Activity-Based Total Accountability (ABTA). ABTA is a method of activity based full cost accounting with three primary functions. It serves as an accountability tool, a budgeting tool and a policy making tool helping to best understand, plan and utilize financial resources.

To learn more about how ABTA can help bring about accountability, visit the Florida Institute of Technology’s Activity-Based Total Accountability Institute.
