People will go to the library to Google about when trump will remove income and federal taxes screaming that it’s a waste of their money, not knowing that the library a federal building paid for by their taxes.
I don’t get it either. The US is down here on the lower end for how much we pay into taxes. We just get hardly any benefits from it since it all goes to our military. But on average we only pay a relatively small percentage compared to the rest of the world.
I’ll put my 2 cents in though. I’d gladly pay a higher tax percentage to save $800 a month for health insurance that doesn’t even work until I spend $7500 first.
it does not all go to the military,
interest on debt is the highest expense but the second highest is social security followed by military
I hate social security personally the significant amount of the collectors have taken out more then they put in and I woudl prefer a more traditiona l welfare system
Conservatives like social security because it is welfare that pretends to be earned
Conservatives don’t like social security they want to get rid of it or cut it
