I took my kids to DC to see the monuments and the Smithsonian a long time ago. I was walking down a street and saw massive office buildings. One is the USDA. Another was the dept of Education. These buildings were huge with a lot of windows. I got to thinking about how many people occupy those buildings and the fact that I pay for all of their salaries and bennies.
Maddening.

I belong to a business association that used to take yearly trips to DC to meet with our state's Congressmen and Senators. On one of those trips, we had a White House briefing in the Eisenhower bldg.
It was early afternoon, and we were waiting for the elevator. People were getting on ahead of us with cakes, donuts, you name it for their offices. It wasn't Friday.
Really made us wonder what the hell they do all day.

You don’t pay for any of their salaries or benefits, you pay interest on the loans that finance their salaries and benefits. It was the ability to spend deficits in peacetime that enabled the government to grow so far past their revenues.
