Where Your Income Tax Money Really Goes 2008 Edition
War Resisters League
Excerpt:
HOW THESE FIGURES WERE DETERMINED
Current military†includes Dept. of Defense ($585 billion), the military portion from other departments ($122 billion), and an unbudgetted estimate of supplemental appropriations ($20 billion). “Past military†represents veterans’ benefits plus 80% of the interest on the debt.*
HL’s Take
There’s lots more, click through and see, there is another pie chart that shows how the Government claims the money is spent. The War Resisters League has been around since WW1, these are the guys I got arrested with at the 2004 Republican Convention in New York.

If you dummies followed economics, we only spend 4% of our taxes towards defense. Compared to 20% like N. Korea and China. We should spend more. End entitlements to lazy individuals enough said

You hollywood morons want all our taxes to go to failed entitlement programs. Trillions of dollars have been wasted

Fastest growing talk show, yeah he went from no listeners to one, when you tuned in. That’s an infinite percentage of growth. entitlement programs? you mean like schools, social security, the infastructure, jobs program, healthcare, finding cures for disease and ways to help us live longer, you mean that kind of stuff? If we spent half the money on wars and military and didn’t ship our jobs overseas, we could be living in paradise.

CCV ==> You are giving Christians a very bad rap. Change your name to something else unless your goal is to debase Christians.

LA: You are so right-on! If “Conservative Christian Values” is a Christian, then no wonder so many people hate Christianity. Profanity doesn’t help either. That is not a Christ-like attitude!!!
