Government at the Brink

I came across an article from 2001 promoting FDT for a presidential run. The primary reason that the author was pushing for Fred was his record for pushing for government reform. He authored the two volume "Government at the Brink" (Volume 1, Volume 2) in which he identified $44 Billion of government waste. It is clear that FDT's focus on government waste is a priority. From Fred's website:

I am committed to:

* Attracting and rewarding the best Americans to serve in government and ensuring they have the authority and resources needed to get the job done.
* Fixing government accounting so tax dollars are properly spent and the American people know exactly what they are being spent on.
* Improving government performance by making agencies accountable for accomplishing their missions on time and within budget.
* Ensuring information technology systems are secure and that they give our government the capacity and effectiveness to get the job done.
