Vanity Post---Looking for Pie Chart..military vs entitlement spending

[jsh3180]

Or graph chart showing entitlement spending versus military spending in the budget.

Having a knock down argument with a lib. I know I have seen the chart before, but cannot put my hands on it quickly.

Thanks in advance.

Not a pie chart, but has the data you asked for

Last figures I read were, budget = $24 trillion, military spending roughly 495 billion, entitlements roughly $16 trillion. Have fun debating!

Put the figures you got from Vermonter into an MS Excel spreadsheet and it'll make you a nice pie chart.

Here's one of the coolest charts that I've seen that divides everything up nicely. Not a pie chart - not exactly what you're looking for, but pretty and useful nonetheless.
