:[This very complicated block is located beneath ''Disasters'' and (of course) to the right of ''Federal spending''. Here it is shown what the 3670 billion dollars from the spending block is used to in the budget. One reason it is so complex, is that the top 10 segments each are singled out in their own gray frame, but the eight below these not are singled out like this. Also where the total for each of the bottom groups are given as well as the individual segments in each group, then it is only the segments total that is given for those in gray frames. That it all belongs together can though be verified by calculation as the sum total of both those in the gray frames as well as the rest reaches the same 3670 billion dollars from the spending block. More precisely the sum here is $3,670,532,830,000 (there are though only 3669,5 squares - one too few) and this amount is only $592,830,000 larger than the sum of the three segments of the spending block: $3,669,940,000,000.]

The total amount of all the segments of the gray framed areas, together with the group totals of the other groups sums up to $3,670,532,830,000 (there are though only 3669,5 squares). The amount is only $592,830,000 larger than the sum of the three segments of the spending block: $3,669,940,000,000.]
 
:[The first ten groups, that are singled out in individual gray frames, will be listed in this order - first the column, and then the two rows. The title is not always at the top, but it will always be mentioned first. Each group is divided in segments. The labels for each segment will always be given from top to bottom (only slight deviation is for ''Energy'' where the two rows will be taken from left, which would not give the exact same order). After each frames transcript there will be a note on layout and possible errors, as well as the sum total (which is not given in the transcript).]
