Where on the Internet can I look at the U.S. budget including the amount of spending and receipts in each of the major categories?
Also, I believe some categories of spending/receipts may be "off-budget" but I would like to see those figures also.
I would prefer a presentation that shows each area's (e.g., the SEC) revenues and expenses on the same line, so that I can see where the government is taking money in net and where it is spending net.
@gollum,
If I were you I'd look at doing a Google of GSA (Gov't Service Administration) budgetary info.
@Ragman,
Thanks.
However, I don't believe there is a Government Service Administration. There is a General Services Administration that handles buying and renting various resources for the rest of the U.S. Government.
@gollum,
My error...I typoed.
However if you know about the existence and the function of the GSA, then why ask?
The budget info can be Googled.
@gollum,
Once again I'm a bit off. The correct acronym should be the GAO:

@Ragman,
Thank you.
Because I wish the revenue and expenses of each significant size unit in the federal budget as well as for the units outside the budget.
I believe the General Services Administration buys things (e.g., rent office space for government agencies to occupy, buys light bulbs).
In conclusion I don't know the answer to my question.
@gollum,
Oh...Government Accountability Office.
I went to its website and don't see if there.
