13B is a rounding error in our corrupt kleptocracy.

For reference, we spend $13 Billion every 16 hours.

Nope. Just gave 20B to Argentina
Didn’t Argentina then remove export tariffs to sell $7 billion worth of soy bean to China.

This feels like.. too much. Should we download rocket money or something?!?!
I bet the govt spends billions on streaming services and Uber eats.
Just an example....
I worked at a large government agency and every user (3 or 4k so figure 1500 floating licenses) had access to an IPTV server with channels like ESPN and History and AMC
Why? to increase productivity I guess.
But whatever the reason it's probably in the 100s of millions every year for the licenses, the provider infrastructure fees, the local network infrastructure hardware & labor. even the hours that the client support guys spend troubleshooting individual users. it's a ton of money for really zero business reason. I'm sure every agency has a similar story.

More context: of the $13B we spend every 16 hours, we print $2.9B, diluting the currency in circulation.
