Cost of the Military. This data set indicates how much money leaves the state in terms of residents' individual income taxes to pay for military spending. In this case, the 'military' is simply defined as the function area (050) 'National Defense' in the federal budget. As such, it does not include other military-related items like financing weapons sales.

Total expenditures made by school districts, including total current expenditures, all property and equipment expenditures, school construction and facilities acquisition items, and expenditures for non-public elementary/secondary education programs such as community services, community colleges, adult education and private schools. Expenditures by state governments for and on behalf of LEAs are included in these expenditures. Expenditures for debt services (payments of interest and principal) are excluded. This does not include Other Uses. These data are taken from the CCD National Public Education Financial Survey. |
