United States Comptroller General, David Walker, who is head of the Government Accountability Office (GAO), spoke to the 2005 White House Conference on Aging in Washington, D.C. in December. His message about the country's financial condition and our dire long-term picture should be required reading for every American reports The Seattle Times. When introducing him, the conference chair called Walker a "straight shooter" and said his long tenure (a 15-year term that began in 1998) gives him an independence that's rare in government. He's going to need it. The picture he painted is beyond grim.
