You realize your #2 costs 1944 times more than your #21?
Pointing at "2 million here" and "3 million here" is completely
counterproductive and likely not to bring about any real cuts.
Most of them are earmarks, which is what kept our political
system somewhat stable.
It's especially silly when people target spending for the
executive or legislative bodies. Realize that they account to
0.8% of total spending. These are the hundreds of personal, as
well as thousands of support, that are codifying laws, placing
them into execution, and just in general trying to adapt the
system to an ever-changing landscape. We spend the same amount
every year buying new planes for the military, which bring about
near-zero benefits to the general populace.

i didn't make this thread for debate although you can debate on
it all you.
Adam and i were just talking in channel once and mentioned we
paid presidents 1 million or something $$ a year. and that
didn't sound right. i knew they got money for life but i didn't
know how much.
but like i said if you guys want to turn this into a debate go
right a head i personally just don't feel like debating on this.

Are you implying that the US budget is filled with $3 million
earmarks or spending things?
If within the US budget $3 million was spent per line, and the
budget was a standard 46 lines, you'd need a budget 26,000 pages
long. The actual budget is 2,403 pages long, including a 1,360
page index (IE, no spending allocations).
Real spending comes from large expenditures ($1B+), not things
that "add up."
