Almost halh a billion per day pays for the traitorous Fed grifters and haters of our Constitutional Republic:

And that figure does not take into account the Post Office (wholly insolvent) and the military (a black hole with no end, which includes a TON of "black bag" paid intelligence personnel that we will never know about):
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Freedom of Information Act filings (sic: show) that way bureaucrats in the federal executive agencies outside of the Defense Department and the U.S. Post Office some $576 million per day.
10 billion per year for the 1.44 million employees of 125 rank-and-file general administrative, civil enforcement and federal law enforcement agencies.
Economic uncertainty might surround many taxpayers, but for federal workers, we are funding lavish and perk-filled lifestyles. In 109 of the 125 federal agencies in Washington, the average employee salary is more than $100,000. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the average real median wage for the average employee was $54,339 in 2021. The average salary at the Census Bureau is $67,656. That’s just a small example of the ‘private-sector’ versus ‘public-sector’ pay disparity.
After working just three years for the federal government, employees have 44 days of paid time off. Can you skip work for nine weeks and still have a job? The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average number of paid vacation days for U.S. workers is 11 days, or a day more than two weeks.
Furthermore, most federal employees worked from home for years due to the recently concluded Covid “emergency.” Congress incentivized this with a $570 million “paid-to-stay home” fund at Treasury. If your (sic: Fed worker's)child wasn’t back to school, you could collect $21,000 over 15 weeks in paid family leave."

We pay these losers to run the government, which now means nothing more than we pay them a lot more than we make to rape us (through taxation) of our work, our wealth, our health, and our sanity while they live it up on our dime.
The financial burden alone on just DOING our taxes each year, in terms of $Dollars and Time is a massive drain across the board, both for businesses and for those who engage in it in any way. Every law, every rule, creates a burden on wealth and incomes, and those burdens are almost always wedded to hidden other hidden costs and burdens that are not accounted for at all.
Most of these Fed grifters are useless bottom feeders, needed only because we have a Leviathan sized tangled web of agencies, many (most?) of which we neither need or want at the Fed level, nor comport with our nation's Founding principles.
Throw in the State and local level of grift, and it ought to be obvious that our governments at every level exist only to steal from us and make our lives suck worse year over year while they reap the benefits of our labor and continue to craft policies that ALWAYS grows the bureaucracy.
If that is not socialism/communism, what is?

Paid To Stay Home— Coronavirus Aid Bill Pays Federal Employees With Kids Out Of School Up To $21K
It is funded through a new $570 million family leave account exclusively for federal workers. Critics call it a personal bailout for bureaucrats.
