The State Department has no idea what happened to $6 billion used to pay its contractors.

In a special “management alert” made public Thursday, the State Department’s Inspector General Steve Linick warned “significant financial risk and a lack of internal control at the department has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years.

The alert was just the latest example of the federal government’s continued struggle with oversight over its outside contractors.

This is outrageous to say the least and comes at a troubling time.  The last time this happened with this much money 9-11 went down.  I wonder, when this happens to economists takeit into consideration?  If the government cant find billions of dollars, how the hell is it suppose to manage an economy?  Just goes to show everything is cooked.  The speeches, the numbers, everything is a lie. Follow the money trail guys..
