Do the time and find out the real facts.  70 cents of every dollar paid in taxes goes toward welfare and social service in the U.S.  Only the following thirty cents goes to infrastructure -- of that less than 7 percent goes to  defense and the bulk of that goes to local police , firemen etc, far from a militaristic imperialistic society.. If your thoughts held true, at the zenith of our military advantage, after WW II , when we had the atom bomb and no one else did, when we were producing an average of a battleship a day, we would not have stopped at Germany and Japan but continued on easily to world domination.

365 except on leap years; then it's 366. (technically it's like 365.25 days a year. we just save up the extra 0.25 until we have a whole day to spend.)

Are you referring to the Federal Budget? A combination of all 50 states budgets? City Budgets? Household budgets?\n\nIf you are referring to the American Federal budget, President Bush submitted a 2.7 trillion (US dollar) proposal. I don't think Congress has acted on it at this time.

Health and Human Services (Which includes Urban Development, and Welfare) comes in at number one with a yearly projected budget of 650 Billion Dollars. Department of Defense is number two with a projected budget of around 515 Billion Dollars, and the Treasury Department is number 3 with a projected budget of 415 Billion Dollars (mostly due to the interest we pay on the national debt.)\n\nThe next largest after that is a huge drop with the Department of Agriculture with a projected budget of around 90 Billion.\n\n\nPlease Note that Social Security is not part of the Federal Budget general fund. It is a separate account and has its own source of income. As a comparison though, Social Security has an estimated budget of 500 Billion. \n\nFission

it's more then $500 billion. While Congress has allocated over $250 billion in direct spending, large amounts of equipment, hazard pay, death payments, massive healthcare costs, and opportunity costs and basic loan interest to pay for all of that could easily top $600 to $1 trillion when the books come.

I think that aswell as the above comments, it also depends on taxes. Take here for example (UK) our government taxes us on everything!

When  you include everything, all our debt, the number is over 50 trillion.  " A billion here and a billion there, soon you are talking about real money."  It is all a colossal shell game perpetrated on the public.  Social Security was supposed to be a fund that contributions went in to, and benefits were to be taken from the interest.  If left alone, there would be more than enough money now to draw from.  Instead, Congress adopted another criminal  practice and started, in the sixties, dumping that money in the general fund to be spent every year on their pet projects, like Vietnam.  Today is  the same with Iraq.  I imagine they call it creative bookkeeping 101.

I think for any programs we need to be careful.  We are only 1/10 the population of the US, and thus we only have 1/10 of the amount of money to spend.\n\nWe should look at how much we fund on a per capita basis not compare ourselves to other countries.
