The Trillions Stop Here - even catch phrases are subject to inflation these days

Even phrases like the buck stops here are inflated these days. Senator Chuck Grassley wants to reduce government waste in the $10 Billion a day government spending and is calling for a new super inspector general.

Under the Inspector General Act of 1978, today nearly 70 IGs provide audit and investigative oversight throughout the federal government. The IG community itself is huge. The seven largest IG offices alone cost taxpayers almost $1 billion a year.
