Tax Dollars at Work

All data is taken from government sources unless otherwise noted. I think the data is self explanatory, but if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I just thought you might find this interesting. My major assumption is that if the government is responsible for X% of a company's revenue, they are also responsible for that same X% of that company's employees. I am interested to find out your thoughts on this data and just how entrenched government spending already is in the private sector.
