Neither one of those actually speaks to our spend.

I was more acknowledging it's not that easy to put a single number on that spend. The low number is a little over half that 11 billion I mentioned, but you can easily come up with other metrics which provide vastly larger figures.

Okay got it. :D That's totally fair. Honestly, I don't think we are spending, or the problem wouldn't be where it is right now.
Two things are needed. One, attack the root cause. To remedial spending to beat back this problem that we're now faced with.
We need those things, because Downstream effects from all of this will be very very expensive.
