I want my money!  As Americans we pay a lot of taxes, and most of the time we feel like we are getting nothing in return.  Yes, we have an amazing country with a strong defense, infrastructure so we can travel freely, the ability to make a fantastic living if we work hard.

However, there is something looming that is a bit scary.  EXPLODING DEBT!  Future obligations that congress has already passed means we will hit critical mass and it will be impossible to pay that debt back.  The social security fund and many others are being raided and not replenished.

The most alarming trend is the massive amount of US Tax revenue that is going towards entitlements, social security, welfare, food stamps, women infant and children programs, etc.  It’s well over 70% of everything the U.S. government brings in!!!!  It’s impossible to run a country on the remaining 20+%.  This is why we will NEVER have a balanced budget.
