FY2008 total outlays as proposed

 The following pie chart illustrates proposed total federal spending for fiscal year 2008. Fiscal year 2008 runs from October 1, 2007 to September 30, 2008.

The 'national defense' portion of the budget includes money for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, if the wars continue at current pace of spending, it is likely that more money would be needed making the share of military spending slightly higher.
