<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 2030749, member: 112&quot;]Well, believe it or not the annual reports I mentioned are best source to find that out.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Now you&#039;re getting into a much more complex issue. One that will involve many govt. contracts with private entities as well as other govt. agencies. Some of that is&nbsp; a matter of public record and some is not. And even what is supposed to be a matter of public record may not reflect an accurate accounting for the govt, has to have some way of, and I hate to use the phrase but there really is no other, covering up what they spend on certain activities that would harm our security if it became known. And I&#039;m afraid that is just the reality of the situation. The public, us, cannot and will not ever have an exact accounting of what the govt. spends its money on.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, there are only two govt. agencies that ever actually make a profit - the mint and the BEP. And since they are both merely parts of a larger govt. agency, the Treasury, to the best of my knowledge what those 2 agencies make is more than eaten up, plus a whole lot more, by their parent agency.</p><p><br /></p><p>So like I said in the beginning, suffice it to say that the govt. spends way, way, more than it takes in. And that neither you, nor me, nor anybody else, will ever have an accounting for that. And to even attempt to find out, is an effort in futility.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
