Where Your Tax Dollars Go:

Glenn Greenwald reports on military spending in today's Salon.com: The United States' budget for fiscal year 2008 is $623 billion; meanwhile the rest of the world combined will spend only $500 billion, and part of that money comes from the U. S. in the form of military aid.

Evidently, money 't'ain't enough to capture a middle-age terrorist with kidney disease.

Do you feel safer? Or just poorer? Meanwhile, China, the number two military spender has a budget of only $65 billion.
