The DoD is the third biggest agency but does not include Veterans Affairs (3.7% of budget), the State Department (1.6% of budget), Homeland Security (1.5%), or the CIA (1.4%).  I don&#x27;t even include the DoE, which among other things handles nukes, or NASA which launches military satellites, has secret mission itineraries etc.<p>Then you also have to count that portion of the interest on the debt that was due to past military spending.<p>The amount of military spending the US government does is higher than what you are presenting.
