Anyone else horrified their tax dollars buy death?

[Dream of the iris]

Yeah it sucks, whats worse is that the tax the govnt steals from you.
Look up the irs, most people who worked there quit, and reported what they saw on you tube: no law stating we have to pay.

What happend to the good old days of taring and feathering the tax collector, and fighting for are freedom. Why is this country so paccified???

Actually there is a law in the constitution that says the government has a right to collect taxes. It's the 16th amendment which goes something like this: "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, WITHOUT apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any CENSUS OR ENUMERATION."

Of course it doesn't say the income tax it does say it can tax the states without a general consensus. So by technicality the income tax is constitutional, however, I'll be the first to say it shouldn't be there in the first place. Anyway, I would imagine some of our taxes going towards the military but realistically only a small percentage of our taxes goes to anything. It mostly goes to paying off the national debt, but because we need money to continue these governmental programs as well as our huge foreign affairs and the fact that we have to pay off the national debt + interest there is no way the collection of 300 million peoples taxes would pay for much. This is why we borrow and create money.
