Yeah, to this naive outsider it seems like:
- Auditing is for compliance with state regulations, so the state should do it.
- With fines as a revenue source, it should be in the state's interest to catch mistakes and fines could/should be set to fund the state auditing apparatus
- any private organization paid by the auditee is necessarily in a conflict of interest
- ams6110 8y agoWith fines as a revenue source it's also in the state's interest to find violations that may not exist. You can't assume that just because it's the government that it's on the up-and-up. People are corruptible, regardless of who their employer is.
