Turning Hard Times Into Good Times

Two-term Congressman Joseph J. DioGuardi has been the only CPA ever elected to Congress, and for good reason. In the business world, to keep them in good standing, an element of honesty is required of CPAs. Not so with government. So when DioGuardi proposed Republicans take the high road toward honest accounting of government spending, even his own party ridiculed him. On Turning Hard Times into Good Times, DioGuardi will tell how Congress deceived the public and how our “no-accountant federal government” masks the real cost of federal programs in the hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars. He will explain how Congress covered up the real cost of the savings and loan bailout by keeping it “off the books,” just as Enron did to disguise its deteriorating financial condition in 2001. Yet unlike Enron’s management, Congress is not accountable for those criminal acts. To further understand how to protect your interests, don’t miss Congressman DioGuardi’s insights.
