The table shows overall government expenditures for the specified fiscal year. Spending totals are aggregated for each major government function.

For the United States the table shows spending for all levels of government—federal spending, state spending, and local spending.
For individual states the table shows expenditures for state and local governments only.

All federal outlays prior to 2008 (state and local since 2006) are actual. More recent spending, including future years out to 2013, are budgeted, estimated, or guesstimated.

Federal expenditure for 1962 through 2013 is based on federal subfunction data published in the president’s Budget of the United States Government. State and local expenditure—both for the United States as a whole and for individual states—for 1992 through 2013 is derived from spending, revenue, and debt numbers in the US Census Bureau’s annual survey of State and Local Government Finances.

State and local expenditure between 1971 and 1991 is obtained from Statistical Abstract of the United States.

Federal expenditure between 1792 and 1962 and state and local expenditure between 1902 and 1971 is obtained from the US Census Bureau’s Bicentennial Edition: Historical Statistics of the United States, Colonial Times to 1970.

You can use controls on the table to change from display of nationwide spending data to individual states. You can change the year or to drill down to view more detailed spending information. You can also view the spending data as percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Democratic Capitalism

Three dynamic and converging systems functioning as one: a democratic polity, an economy based on markets and incentives, and a moral-cultural system which is plural and, in the largest sense, liberal.
