[Oe List ...] Federal budget

[Susan Fertig]

Hmmm-in the first link below, the Health and Human Services budget is shown
at $900 billion, with $719 billion for Defense Department (of which $200
billion is for defense efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen)--which is
inconsistent with the chart below, in particular the $600 billion for "all
other departments".

 

I wonder how much of the Defense budget is for personnel and how much for
defense systems.  When I have time I'll try to ferret that out.

Here's a chart for 2010 just considering "discretionary spending." People go
both ways on whether Social Security is part of the Federal Budget.

 

On Thursday February 26th, the US Federal Budget for 2010
<http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/>  was released. In a sea of 140
pages, there was over $600 billion going to defense and roughly another $600
billion going towards all other departments and programs. Obama forecasts a
$1.75 trillion deficit increase but for the overall US deficit to be halved
by the end of his term, partially through $989 billion in new taxes. (Guess
what's happening to the new taxes.)
