Might want to do a little research before you speak about the government policies you support. This is a simple fact, and one that is fairly commonly known. And clearly one that you have chosen to ignore, or disregard.
This data was compiled with a simple Google query of "where does the government spend the most money". These are the first page results.

About half of fiscal 2008 discretionary spending paid for defense, and most of the rest went for domestic programs such as agricultural subsidies, highway construction, and the federal courts (see figure 3). Only 3 percent of discretionary spending funded international activities, such as foreign aid.

So again, care to cite where the error in this data is taking place? Should be pretty easy.
