Help sought. I'm looking for an online data bank of federal budgets running back to 1900

[Bucky]

Anyone know where a clean, simple database of federal budget, deficit, debt, & revenues can be found? It's for a social studies class and google ain't helping me one bit.

1. national archives?

2. can't find it on NARA.gov using their search.

Anyone else got a simpler link? This is frustrating.

3. Ask a librarian. They're good with that stuff

In my state there's a chat site where you can ask questions to reference librarians.

5. Oh I can't talk to librarians.

I always end up doodling with myself.



(hmmm, maybe I shouldn't have put that in print...)

6. That's why you should do it via the Intertubes

You can doodle to your heart's content and no one will know.

Assuming that you're good at typing one-handed
