the Military Fucking Budget

For the 2009 fiscal year, the base budget rose to US $515.4 billion. Adding emergency discretionary spending and supplemental spending brings the sum to US 651.2 billion. This does not include many military-related items that

are outside of the Defense Department budget, such as nuclear weapons research, maintenance and production (about $9.3 billion, which is in the Department of Energy budget), Veterans Affairs (about $33.2 billion), interest on

debt incurred in past wars, or the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan (which are largely funded through extra-budgetary supplements, about $170 billion in 2007). As of 2009, the United States government is spending about $1 trillion

annually on defense-related purposes.

1. U. S. spends about as much as the rest of the world combined.

Next four largest spenders- all at 4 to 5 per cent of total spending: Japan, France, China, and the United Kingdom. Allies and/or trading partners. Axis of Evil where are you?
