The latest federal budget was released today.  It’s all available online at www.budget.gov, a measure that the President said was a cost cutting procedure.  What’s interesting to note, is that there are charts of current expenditure in several sub-sections of the Federal Government, and there are 2 year estimated increases in the same areas.

Now this is a unique budget, as it’s the first time in history $3.1 Trillion (with a T)  is being spent in a 12 month period.  Give it a look, it’s very interesting.  Fortunately none of our finances are on such a large scale, makes this seem like a piece of cake by comparison.
