The real cost of government

There's a must-read post at POLICY BLOG about a new report by Americans for Tax Reform that examines the burden on the beleaguered American worker to support government in all its manifestations.

From POLICY BLOG:
Pennsylvanians worked 195 days - through July 14 - to pay for the cost of federal, state and local spending and regulation. This ranks 33rd (i.e. 18th highest government burden), though slightly below the national average - large states like New York and California tilt the average.
It gets more depressing the further you read into the report. If you're a real masochist, check out "How much do you work for Government?" at POLICY BLOG
