Let me clarify, the majority of the discretionary portion of your taxes goes to defense & security... and it's a lot more than people think...cincybearcat said:
No it doesn't. 16% to military.my2hands said:
And the majority of those federal tax dollars you pay goes to military spending... to help you feel safe from the boogeyman in your Midwestern upper middle class neighborhood... doesn't it feel good to pay all that hard earned money to invade nations and slaughter a few hundred thousand people? I personally love paying for a drone strike that kills innocent children... I love that shit!cincybearcat said:
It's crazy what we pay in taxes on an annual basis...not even including property tax and all the sales tax. My Family of 3 pays enough in taxes. YuckHalifax2TheMax said:
And look at who his core supporters are from the poll above. And that's why we're fucked. 37 years of republican strategy finally paid off. Now, watch this drive.cincybearcat said:Man - he even messed up the tax policy. I actually had hope it would be 1 of the things he did well and helped me. But there isn't any reform and my family will pay the same amount. Seriously, what an idiot. I'm not that shocked that he wants to lower the top %, but I figured that most would receive some % of a tax cut in the initial plan at least. Now he is juts making the upper middle class pay for everything....nice work jerk.
Meanwhile high schools in America have fucking metal detectors at the front doors
America is getting what it deserves
60% to social security, medicare, medicaid and other support programs.
6% just to pay the interest since they cant balance a budget!
If they let me invest the 25% that goes into social security on my own, I'd have over $1 million in 21 years.
Not that the military spending is not high....but it's far from the majority of the tax money spent.

Social safety net programs & spending are a different discussion for another day my friend
I have no issue helping pay for elderly & sick folks... I do have a problem paying to militarize the planet however0 -
Not to mention long term spending & costs related to medical care for vets, mental & physical... veteran homelessness, etc... nation building & occupation... pollution (DOD is largest polluter in the country and likely the planet)... maybe we can turn Yuca Mountain into a National Park and charge a fee lol
The CIA black budget... NASA spending being used on the militarization of space... R&D spending which is mostly off the books...

It's absurd that Trump wants to increase defense spending to approximately $650 BILLION! And give the massive tax cuts he proposes. Where are all the fiscal conservatives now?

Meanwhile Clinton cut defense spending, signed in welfare reform, and balanced the budget... but he is the anti-Christ to these people lol
they seem to have no base in facts

When someone says tax reform, what do they really mean? Because it usually comes across as just wanting their own taxes cut, not actual reform. And when someone says they're paying too much in taxes, what are they looking at to make that conclusion?cincybearcat said:Man - he even messed up the tax policy. I actually had hope it would be 1 of the things he did well and helped me. But there isn't any reform and my family will pay the same amount. Seriously, what an idiot.

$100 million dollars raised for Trump's Inaugural that couldn't have cost more than $50 million, with much of the money donated by made up or false donors. Not only that but the money not spent is "unaccounted" for. Unless Three Doors Down is bigger than U2, Beyoncé, Kayne and Sir Paul.
