From this study (my bold):Sumati N. Dubey wrote:The government's spending on the child support program has increased dramatically since 1978. Total administrative expenditure by the federal government grew from $808.450 million in 1978 to $1.343 trillion in 1993. Spending by states has also grown rapidly during this period: $366.263 milion in 1988 to $651.80 million in 1993. Combined federal and state expenditures on child support enforcement grew from $1.70 billion in fiscal year 1988 to $1.998.649 billion in 1993.
I think your bolded bit contains a typo. I'm highly skeptical that the figure was 1.343 trillion in 1993. Or any year for that matter.
"Billion" would seem more correct.
Depends on your country.
