Don't know for certain, but I think this is how it works. The government takes the whole of what they collect from the entire nation and then based on the established budget they give a certain percentage to each program.
So say they take 10,000 per year from your check and the budget allots eight percent to education. Essentially, $800 goes to education. As far as a site that deliniates the budget, I don't know one off hand. Let me get back to you.
