Despite a rash of recent high-profile hearings, Washington
largely ignores the day-to-day performance of the massive federal
bureaucracy. This lack of oversight, however, enables poor
performance to continue and increases the public's distrust in
government. One fundamental way to change the way Washington
does business is to implement biennial budgeting. A 2-year
budget would force Congress to spend every other year fixing or
repealing broken programs - not spending the taxpayers'
money. While it is not the only solution, biennial budgeting
is an important first step toward controlling wasteful
spending.
