Taxpayers have a right to know where and how their money is spent.

Red all the Way Thru. Only Good Blue is a DEAD BLUE!

I would hate to live in a Blue state.

Look at California, it's a shithole.

Oh No. In Califunny, they just shit on the sidewalk. They don't use holes.

Should people who receive state, tax payer money be put on a publicly available database too?

No.

But taxpayers should know how much is being spent on welfare.

I completely agree with the sentiment, governments should be almost completely transparent fiscally and procedurally. Even national security should at the very least be very transparent to the Democratic representatives, if not necessarily to all citizens. People should know what they pay for and what their benefits are for what they pay.
