Where Do Your Tax Dollars Actually Go? -- The Motley Fool
About $2.7 trillion -- more than two-thirds of the total -- went for various kinds of social insurance (Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare, unemployment compensation, veterans benefits and the like). Another $604 billion, or 15.3% of total spending, went for national defense; net interest payments on government debt was about $240 billion, or 6.1%. Education aid and related social services were about $114 billion, or less than 3% of all federal spending.
Every other program -- public broadcasting, NASA, national parks, foreign aid, and everything else -- adds up to the remaining 6% of the federal budget. Here's how each major spending area breaks down:
- 24% Social Security
- 15% Medicare
- 15% Defense
- 13% Health
- 13% Income Security
- 6% Net Interest
- 5% Veterans Benefits
- 6% Other
- 3% Education
It's about all taxes paid to the government..... Of course those not sanity challenged would get that.Medicare and SS are separate taxes and should not be included.

You get 10 free ones a month. I notice so many are now charging, the post is another and several more.
Your "take" on this issue has no bearing on the discussion..... It's about how the government divvies up taxes, all our taxes, SS and Medicare are taxes....... Oops......It's about all taxes paid to the government..... Of course those not sanity challenged would get that.Medicare and SS are separate taxes and should not be included.
It should be separated but we know the Gov dips into SS and Medicare. Also I bet the military is a lot more.

So? Not my concern besides that 3% is nothing more than moneys to states each of which provide the vast majority of funding for their own education systems.

Any country that pays 15% of it's budget on their military and 3% of it's budget educating it's citizens is a country in bad trouble. This is a society that values bombs 5 times more than an educated population with all the ramifications for jobs and competition with the rest of the world.

Education is handled by the states...FEDs screw it up with worthless mandates
Alrdy for profit idiot....just who gets the money......Education is handled by the states...FEDs screw it up with worthless mandates
Most will become for profit like in Devos MI, so not to worry everyone will think the story of Noah's ark is real history.

You don't own information Chuck. Odd that you had some need to post an angry response. I was using the information to make a point, you aren't involved so bye now and buy bonds.
