        If you had a say in making up the federal budget this year, for which 
        (1986 and later: of the following) programs would you like to see     
        spending increased and for which would you like to see spending       
        decreased:                                                            
                                                                              
        Should federal spending on <item> be increased, decreased or kept     
        about the same?

        USE WEIGHT VARIABLE VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B.                        
                                                                              
        Weight variable VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B must be used if             
        distributions including 1970 data are desired:  see VCF0010.          
        Note that use of VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B as a weight reduces the    
        1970 total N for this variable:  form 2 whites who should appear as   
        code 0 INAP cases are excluded from the 1970 total N.                 
                                                                              
        Order of items (see VCF9046-9050) varied from year to year.  In 1988, 
        the federal budget allocation series was administered with a break    
        mid-sequence.
