A comment on Washington Versus Silicon Valley. Parent comment
It depends on your definition of bloat. They do consume comparable amounts of GDP and they don't do some things that the US govt does.
However, there's an even bigger difference - both are tiny by comparision to the US govt. Germany would be a big state and Austria a middle-size one.
