Federal Budget

Not that this is the first time in history that a president has released the full budget for a fiscal year, but it is very easily accessible this time. If you are interested in viewing the budget you can go here: http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/Overview. Its about a 4 MB file so it doesn't take very long to download. Thats all I have for today. If you find anything interesting about the budget feel free to let me know. 


Here is a reported federal budget breakdown for 2011

    its interesting to see this as a pie chart, because normally it is spoken about in numbers too big to actually appreciate

    its nice to see all this info collected in one place neatly. most people just throw random numbers around, thanks for providing a pie chart.

    Thanks for sharing this. The info in that link shows us how the money is actually being spent. it's quite a shame.

    Ahhh! Who picked out those colors? I can't tell Medicare from net interests! Is the government spending 8% on jobs? If so, that's low, considering that that is probably the primary problem with the US right now
