There are 12 million federal employees and contractors living off of your taxes.
That is almost half the population of Canada.
Additional for me, current employees:
NY State: 251,700 (From St. Louis Fed data)
County: 4,600 employees
Town: 56 employees
School District: 160 employees
What else am I forgetting? Contractors at each level are not counted.
Also, how many retirees are being supported at each level by taxes?
