GSA - 12,000 employees who service only the Gov’t has an annual budget of $26.3 Billion

NASA - ~300,000 employees with an annual budget of $18.4 Billion and serve the US and mankind.

One of these has created countless jobs in Spin-off techology, helps mankind through advances in science, medical, chemistry, computer science, software and material sciences; the other is a group of parasites.

Am I the only one who has a problem with this?

My daughter-in-law works for the feds and is working for the one of the pubbie budget committees and she will actually argue that they are cutting the federal budget in their proposals.

When I point out that if the amount of money being spent, increases, year over year, there is no way that the federal budget was cut.

The feds look at little departments and say, see we cut $100 in this budget, but yes overall the total budget went up by a .....

The federal employee, even the conservative ones, have a compartment in their heads, which say, we must increase entitlement spending just to stay even.

They are so ingrained in the "base line budgeting process" that they cannot understand, real cuts.

Actually, since Obama killed the space program and ordered NASA to help Muslims appreciate their "contributions". I guess "contributions" is the code word for murder and destruction. They not only don't like Christians, they don't even like other Muslims that are different sects.

So, why does NASA have to focus on helping murderers "appreciate" their "contributions"??

Actually, since Obama killed the space program and ordered NASA to help Muslims appreciate their "contributions", NASA isn't doing anything to help anyone do anything. I guess "contributions" is the code word for murder and destruction. They not only don't like Christians, they don't even like other Muslims that are different sects.

Brilliant. Really puts things in to perspective. I wonder if there is a breakdown like that for other areas of government. Spending per employee.

I believe NASA directly employs 25,000 or so employees. I am not sure how many contract employees there are. Maybe that's the 300,000 number.

Still it's shocking the GSA has a budget of $26B -- that's insane. I like to see the government issue a breakdown of expenditures by these parasites.
