4. I know where that 51% isn't going.
It won't feed any hungry Americans on American soil.
It won't educate any children.
It won't build any highways.
It won't inspect and maintain any bridges.
It won't buy light rail.
It won't improve the rail system we have for passengers.
It won't go toward alternate fuels.
It won't house the homeless.
In other words, 51% of our resources are gone. We give them and away they go.
When will we have a stake in the society?
What should we be obligated to when so little is done for us with our own funds?
