Land of the "Free"

"In 2020, about 145.05 million people were full-time employees of state and local governments in the United States."

Anyone want to look that up as a fraction of the total labour force?
Total population is 350 million-ish, so regardless the answer will be: most everybody. Practically your entire economy is government action, you totalitarian Fascist freaks.

    My mind was totally blown for a moment, but there's a typo.
    It's 15.05 million, she's accidentally added an extra 4.

    It does feel a bit high, now that you mention it.

New failcomment system also fails to publish my comments, it's not limited to yours. Keep trying, it will usually work, eventually.
Blogger deliberately trying to kill itself, I expect.
Captchas should be off. If it gives you one anyway, it's against my explicit instructions.
