Are there any numbers on how much of the non-defense discretionary spending of 661 billion is actually related to the military spending? It lists "veteran's benefits" under that for example. Same for "Other", which lists "military retirement" and again "some veteran's benefits" for example. That sounds like defense spending to me.
