A GS-3 Federal law enforcement employee earns $23,002 annually; even if every employee of the Fortress America department was the same bottom pay grade, you'd have to budget $73,083,794,560 annually for salaries alone.

Loaded rates for employees are approximately 2.5X the salary. So the loaded rate for these folks would be $57,505, or $182,709,486,400 annually.

And I reiterate, that's assuming every last one of those employees is at the bottom pay grade.

Thanks for the loaded rate information.

This is beginning to sound like another "War on Drugs" kind of fiasco.
