Thinking about government spending priorities, and found this little note in the audit of the SVOG post award process. "Program officials assigned 30 staff members to review 2,162 of the 13,011 SVOG awards in total." 1/3

"As of February 5, 2024, SBA completed 165 reviews since it began conducting post-award reviews in July 2022. At this pace, we estimate it will take 19 years, or until February 2043, to complete the remaining reviews." 2/3
