[quote=Anonymous]But surely there are better reasons to support a strong federal government than pure economic self-interest? I'm pretty liberal, but I don't think your graph makes a strong case. It frankly plays right into the hands of opponents of the federal government, and I can see their case. I am strongly opposed to how we manage the budget - i.e. use it or lose it. I think this encourages waste and that budgets need to be more carefully evaluated year over year to make sure every agency is funded to the level it NEEDS, not what they want. These inflated wage numbers also reflect the large number of wasteful and ridiculous federal contracts won by private companies each year, which again is not a strong case for strong federal government.
