Yea it was the first google hit, but since its a anti-war site, and they redefine what the budget is I don't think I'd trust it all that much
They take out social security as a trust fund (its not though it should be) and then claim 80% of all debt payments is due to the military, which is just silly, and finaly lump any VA benifit as a military expense.
Mind you I wouldn't CARE if it was 50%, because at least defense is a job the government is suppose to do, unlike wealth redistrubution.
