Schweich said he will designate a “rapid response team” to jump in immediately when credible, serious allegations surface about waste or corruption. As an example, he cited the possibility of a state employee doing political work on state time.
Second question: Since Schweich doesn’t seem to be able to perform an auditor’s functions when it comes to the unFair Tax proposal pushed by Rex Sinquefield, a big-time purchaser of state political products, will his office even be able to summon sufficient auditing skill do the job when it comes to possible miscreants like Kinder?
Or was Schweich’s hesitation apropos the unFair Tax simply a result of his sense of obligation to follow through on the promise his erstwhile campaign supporter and fellow GOPer, Peter Kinder, made on Schweich’s behalf that, if elected, Schweich would focus his auditing efforts on “the other side”?
