Where to start. The interest on our debt is 1 trillion dollars. The waste and fraud in the federal government is estimated at 1 trillion dollars. The federal government employ's over 3 million people. I can't find a figure for that cost. If you add their salaries and the health, pension and all the other goodies in their package, I'm going to guess 600 Billion dollars a year. I'm sure there is a lot of redundancy in there. Maybe some analytical expert can help me with that number.
