But I think this chart says it all...

I just looked at this graph again and realized it's wrong. In order for that graph to be true, for example, for 2010 the budget would have to be $5.87 Trillion (40.34% of $14551.8 Trillion) The 2010 budget was actually $3.552 Trillion... which is 24.4% of GDP for 2010.
