Andy Beal spotted an AP article named Senate backs online search of spending. Yes, the Senate wants to make it easier for normal users to track what the US Government is spending taxpayers money on.

Andy asks, why not just have Google do it for the government, since they already know a lot more than the government does anyway? :)
