Book excerpt: Next year, your Federal Government will spend nearly $2.0 trillion. Needless to say, that's a lot of money. In fact, that's almost $7,000 for every man, woman, and child in the country; nearly $5.4 billion per day; and about $3.7 million per minute. And most of that money comes from taxes on the American people. The Government spends it on lots of things-on programs as large as Social Security, and on activities as small and unknown as repairs to the National Zoo. Together, these programs are what make up the Federal budget. How much do you know about the budget? If your answer is "not much," you're not alone. In fact, hardly anybody knows everything that's in the thousands of pages, and several books, that make up the budget each year. But we know you care a lot about how the Government spends your money. That's why A Citizen's Guide to the Federal Budget was created. With this seventh edition, we hope to make the budget more accessible and understandable. The Guide is designed to give you a walking tour of the budget. In these pages, we will outline for you how the Government raises revenues and spends money, how the President and Congress enact the budget, how the Nation has been able to move from deficit to surplus, and what the President hopes to accomplish with his 2002 Budget. After you read these pages, we hope that you will think the tour was worth your time.

Download or read book Participatory Budgeting in the United States written by Victoria Gordon and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although citizen engagement is a core public service value, few public administrators receive training on how to share leadership with people outside the government. Participatory Budgeting in the United States serves as a primer for those looking to understand a classic example of participatory governance, engaging local citizens in examining budgetary constraints and priorities before making recommendations to local government. Utilizing case studies and an original set of interviews with community members, elected officials, and city employees, this book provides a rare window onto the participatory budgeting process through the words and experiences of the very individuals involved. The central themes that emerge from these fascinating and detailed cases focus on three core areas: creating the participatory budgeting infrastructure; increasing citizen participation in participatory budgeting; and assessing and increasing the impact of participatory budgeting. This book provides students, local government elected officials, practitioners, and citizens with a comprehensive understanding of participatory budgeting and straightforward guidelines to enhance the process of civic engagement and democratic values in local communities.
