What is your political philosophy?

We have over 3,700 government entities operating in Missouri. The state auditor audits less than a hundred per year. I would like to have all government entities post their budgets online as well as their monthly expenses so that the taxpayers can see exactly who is being paid how much and for what. See more at www.KevinRoach.comIs there anything you would like to add?My Values and Concrete Ideas are on my site, www.KevinRoach.com[4]
