*This page was created and posted in 2007 since then all of the government sites and or pages that I accessed through the internet to provide for you have been deleted. I left the one link to show you this.
I want to invite you to take a real good look at the FBI, DEA and the CIA with me. Especially their success rates as well as their failures and the budgets that they have to work with. In addition, I think that you might find how they prioritize criminal and terrorist investigations interesting. I am also going to try to provide fact based information about the gross revenues and actual cash that have been confiscated by all three agencies over at least a three year period of time and what was done with the property and just how that cash was allocated. All information is public access and can be researched at this *government site. This is a header at the same page that just caught my eye, Providing For More Effective Government. Here are projective figures of what that, More Effective Government, will be costing the American people in 2007. One thing, I don’t recall but on the tax form is there an, All Other exemption?
