Federal Budget Increasingly Dominated by Healthcare Spending
Federal healthcare spending far exceeds spending on national defense or any other industry, according to the latest data from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). In 2024, the federal government spent $1.98 trillion on health care, amounting to 29.4 percent of the federal budget and 6.9 percent of GDP. Healthcare spending, including programs like Medicare and Medicaid, was more than one-third of non-interest federal spending last year (33.8 percent) and more than twice the size of the defense budget (which totaled $874 billion in 2024, excluding the Defense Health Program, or 12.9 percent of the federal budget).
Your numbers are also what we spent coming out of COVID, I bet they (at least) do not increase as much for 24', 25' and 26'.
2024 was not COVID... the links I gave were for 2024.
First you tried to claim that the numbers I gave were not what the Federal Government spent, you were wrong. Now you tried to say they were from COVID and were wrong again.
Slow down counselor, carefully read the information first so you don't look like QP!

On my cell so not going to look it up now but even the lies at their peek against all government spending including Healthcare would be tiny compared to what you highlight here.
So again that Damo suddenly gets his analysis hat out as he sees this as a criticism of Trump when he did no such thing when he saw DOGE as a positive for Trump tells everyone all they need to know about his default settings.
Everyone but Damo who remains blind to it.
DOGE claimed to have found a bit over 200 Billion.

No that is just another lie by you lyingfish.
Just as the people who tried to kill Trump were not "lefties" but you guys lied and tried to say they were.
Trump is hated by many outside the "left".
We know why you are not embarrassed as you are too stupid to be.
And the real number was more like 2 billion.DOGE claimed to have found a bit over 200 Billion.

So when you use the verifiable numbers and cut out the Musk/Trump hype, DOGE paid for about 1.1% of the spending THUS FAR on the Iraq war.
Nobody has subtracted the amount of money DOGE cost us.
Thanks, I intend to be more careful, I appreciate you showing me my mistakes.

And what is total government spending?DOGE claimed to have found a bit over 200 Billion.
(Those numbers are debunked now BTW so again your critical eye has gone away. But keep the fake numbers in and answer my question above)

And DOGE is against total governments spending in every area including Healthcare.
So a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the significance as compared to your numbers against health care alone.
An understatement.
Try and find a better source than NPR. You have been tripping over your dick all day. Don't be a QPeeeeeeeeee, take your time.
