Now Updated with 2008 State and Local Numbers

usgovernmentspending.com is now updated with the latest numbers for State and Local Spending data from the US Census Bureau. The latest values are for FY 2008. State and local spending and revenue after 2008 are "guesstimated" by projecting the change between 2007 and 2008 to subsequent years.

Note: usgovernmentspending.com always shows total spending, including federal, state, and local.

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.
Michael Novak, The Spirit of Democratic Capitalism

Education

“We have met with families in which for weeks together, not an article of sustenance but potatoes had been used; yet for every child the hard-earned sum was provided to send them to school.”
E. G. West, Education and the State

Government Expenditure

The Union publishes an exact return of the amount of its taxes; I can get copies of the budgets of the four and twenty component states; but who can tell me what the citizens spend in the administration of county and township?
Alexis de Tocqueville, Democracy in America
