Pensions Outpace Active Pay in U S Military Budget
The Pentagon will spend more this year on military pensions than the Army pays to all personnel. Pension costs have surged from 1% of the budget in 1962 to 8.2 billion this year and could reach 9 to 10 billion in coming years, with GAO projecting 424 billion in pensions through 2000. Over a million pensioners exist, rising to 1.3 million by 1980, while active pay, Navy shipbuilding, and Air Force procurement compete for funds.
