- Taxpayers exploring government spending
- Worth noticing
- The page labels its spending counter an estimate, calculated from FY2025 outlays averaged per second—not a live feed.
Field notes
The quick estimate uses income presets as well as an income entry field, while a separate link leads to a fuller U.S. calculator. The displayed example is a single filer using the standard deduction and 2026 federal brackets, and it explicitly covers federal income tax only. Its spending comparison uses FY2025 Treasury data; the per-second counter is an average-rate estimate, not a live government feed.
