Your Money in Pictures: Where Did Your Tax Dollar Go?

Your Money in Pictures: Where Did Your Tax Dollar Go? - Illinois Review:
 "YOUR MONEY IN PICTURES: WHERE DID YOUR TAX DOLLAR GO?

Wonder what happens to your hard-earned cash after you hand it over the IRS each year? Almost half goes toward paying for the ballooning entitlement programs—Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid—a proportion that will only increase as the number of retirees expands in the near future. Even worse, your tax money only funded 70 cents of every federal dollar spent in 2012, meaning the remaining 30 cents was borrowed and tacked on to the massive national debt."
