What's the entitlement slice of the pie up to these days in the US?
- alistairSH 4y ago~73% of the federal budget is mandatory spending. Of that, ~52% is Social Security, unemployment, and labor programs (or ~40% of the total). ~28% Medicare and other health programs (or ~23% of the total). Military is ~11% of the total. Interest payments are a bit over 4% of the total. International affairs is <1% of the total budget. https://www.nationalpriorities.org/budget-basics/federal-budget-101/spending/ https://www.nationalpriorities.org/budget-basics/federal-bud...
