When I worked for a Fortune 500 Corporation, I was responsible overseeing a $22,000,000 Yearly Expense Budget.
Every Year I had to justify the all Budget Expenses and I always had a Cost Reduction Goal to meet. If I didn’t hit or exceed the expected reductions, I would be looking for a new Job.
The idea that our Government thinks there are no cost savings in a $4,000,000,000,000 Yearly Budget is beyond the pale.
I would wager that 10% to 20% of that Budget is a complete waste of Taxpayer Money, but I think I am being very “Conservative” in that estimate. LOL
Without the TYPOS this time. LOL

Government is like a [big] baby. An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.

When you think of government, take an enterprise, and take away reason and accountability.
