What do I get for my federal taxes? Our public schools are failing, Social Security is insolvent, Medicare & Medicaid are run by a corrupt government that uses taxpayer money to overpay the corporations that run it. Our military is in shambles, our economy is on the brink of complete collapse and all our leaders can think of to do in order to solve the problem is to use our tax dollars to bail out the mistakes of corporations while Americans end up homeless and broke. And stuck with the bill. Do people understand how much money we have spent in Iraq? Seriously really, get a grip and really GET how much money has gone down the hole? THREE TRILLION DOLLARS!!! $3,000,000,000,000 / 300,000,000 = $10,000/ea Each American is in for 10k ontop of the state income tax burden. What did our forefathers do, when faced with this kind of bogus farce of representation, when bullied into paying for something they don't even want or need? I love my country but hate the greedy bastards running it.
