The Pentagon receives the lion's share of the US tax payer's dollars.
36% goes to current military expenses. 18% goes to what's called "past military" which includes veteran's pensions and medical benefits.
The US spends more on its military than the following countries COMBINED: China, Russia, Britain, France, Japan, Germany, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, India, Brazil, Italy, Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and Indonesia.
Where does the money go?
At least 25% - and some estimates are much higher - goes down a rat hole unaccounted for and never to been seen again.
The above news report ran the day before September 11, 2001. The problem since then has become exponentially worse.
