Bureaucracy

Federal agencies spent $6.8 trillion in fiscal year 2025 while failing basic audits, yet Congress keeps sending more cash. The power of the purse means nothing if lawmakers refuse to pull it. Real oversight starts with zero-based review.

Washington funds hundreds of overlapping programs across dozens of agencies, which wastes taxpayer money and expands federal power. Consolidating these efforts would restore liberty and save billions. Congress should demand a real audit.

March Madness fills out its bracket with ruthless efficiency. Sixty-eight teams go in, one champion comes out. If only federal agencies worked the same way.
