On Tax Day, Obama shows Taxpayers where their Money went

Quote:

President Obama marked Tax Day on Monday by directing taxpayers to an online tool that shows them how their tax dollars are being divided among broad categories of federal spending such as education and defense.
By using the link at www.Whitehouse.gov/2012-taxreceipt, taxpayers can enter the amount of taxes they paid in the past year, and the tool will calculate how much of those taxes went to various federal agencies and services.

Distraction, deception, unimportant nonsense that to know will not even touch upon the basics of the problem. After American idol and sitcoms every day on TV, now this. Okay.

People should better care for getting education on what money actually is, and how governments' paper tickets have totally perverted it. Then they would see all by themselves what is going wrong, who has an interest in things going wrong, and who thus is responsible and should be avoided.

Read this tiny little book, it is the best introduction to what money is that i have ever found. Right on the mark, but easy to read, by a very competent author of known reputation. It's right. It's a gem. It's free.

If Obama was a real patriot...

He wouldn't accept a single cent in remuneration from the tax payers.

He gets free housing, food, medical and transportation with loads of free security.

He should be more like Thomas Jefferson, not George Jefferson taking us to the cleaners.:down:
