USAFacts is a new data-driven portrait of the American population, our government’s finances, and government’s impact on society. We are a non-partisan, not-for-profit civic initiative and have no political agenda or commercial motive. We provide this information as a free public service and are committed to maintaining and expanding it in the future.

We rely exclusively on publicly available government data sources. We don’t make judgments or prescribe specific policies. Whether government money is spent wisely or not, whether our quality of life is improving or getting worse – that’s for you to decide. We hope to spur serious, reasoned, and informed debate on the purpose and functions of government. Such debate is vital to our democracy. We hope that USAFacts will make a modest contribution toward building consensus and finding solutions.

There’s more to USAFacts than this website. We also offer an annual report, a summary report, and a “10-K” modeled on the document public companies submit annually to the SEC for transparency and accountability to their investors.

I am not a personal fan of Steve Ballmer (the embalmer) formerly CEO of Microsoft(aka Microslop), but I was impressed with his mission to centralize the reporting of the most important national data heretofore not available in one place without the influence of everyone with a stake in influencing public opinion. Check it out, he may have found the resurrection of his own personal soul which he sorely needs, but if he is providing a huge source of information source to justify national discussion of public policy, God bless him...
