National defense is the term given to any activity or effort performed to protect a nation against attack or other threats. Ostensibly, the term should be equivalent to literal Military Defense , but it may also be applied to offensive actions or policies, or to non-military actions or policies. For the United States , "National defense" is the name of an area of "tax outlay" (a division of how tax income is spent; other outlays include " Medicare ", " Social Security ", and "Non-defense discretionary spending").
