BUDGET: 450 agents x $3,000 per week x 104 weeks = $140,400,000 ( Low end financial costs) vs $25,000,000 + $160,000 cash = $25,160,000.00
An approximate gross dollar loss on lowest value placed upon both sides = $115,240,000.00: This type of financial justification by the governing bodies is one reason why the US Government is in serious debt.
The value of $3,000.00 per week per State / Federal employee was taken from a recent article.
The value of destroyed lives in this process, loss of trust and confidence to its' citizens cannot ever be replaced by any dollar value.
