Just look at welfare alone

The federal government ADMITS that it is only 27% efficient.

That means that for every $100,000 put into welfare system $27,000 goes to people in need, and $73,000 goes to the bureaucracy. Which is a pretty good full-time wage.

Or in other words, there is about one welfare employee for each person on welfare.

What I'm talking about when I talk about "big government" (at the federal level) is ANY thing the goverment gets involved in which it is not specifically empowered to BE involved in by the Constitution of The United States.
