Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted February 13, 2019 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 13, 2019 In 2000, total govt spending was around $3.2 Trillion. Fed, state and local. https://www.usgovernmentspending.com/total_2000USrt_20rs5n In 2020 total govt spending is estimated to equal $7.9 Trillion. https://www.usgovernmentspending.com/total_2020USrt_20rs5n Absolutely insane how much all levels of govt have grown in 20 years. Averaging close to 5% increase in spending per year. In 2020 we will spend over $25,400 per citizen. $2258 per person just on defense. Sadly we already are a socialist country. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
