[net.misc] Federal Budget Information Wanted

richard@sequent.UUCP (03/19/84)

Is anyone aware of a general reference book that breaks down and analyzes
each fiscal years federal budget?  This sort of thing obviously exists;
where does one get one, how much, etc...   

Next, does anyone know of a book that analyzes the year-to-year trends of
the budget?  It's not the analysis I'm really interested, it's the
history of the major line items.  

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Check out the Statistical Abstract of the United States, published
yearly by the Department of Commerce.  It contains every statistic
under the sun, including breakdowns of the federal budget.
Fascinating reading!
