And just think, there are over 22 million government employees today. For a population of 310 million, that's 1 for every 14. Do we really need that many to "govern"?

BLS Stats

This is also why gov shouldn't do charity, social security, etc.. Most money goes to the employees not to the "needy".

Would you donate to a charity that had about 90% administrative overhead? That's what you get w/gov.

And the only thing they produce is more grief and debt for America.

“And just think, there are over 22 million government employees today.”

It’s more than that.

That doesn’t include all the gov contractors (about 10 million) like Gruber, and their graft.
