Budget Trivia

Here's some trivia that doesn't even need an explanation. You can just read it and sigh.

BUDGET TRIVIA - In the first 186 years of our nation’s history where financial records were maintained (i.e., the period from 1789-1974), the USA spent $3.8 trillion in aggregate. The total of projected government outlays during the current 2010 fiscal
year is $3.7 trillion (source: Office of Management and Budget).
