We can try to feel better about paying taxes when we think about the services the government provides with our money. OK, I said try to feel better.

 

For fiscal year 1999 federal budget, your tax dollar will be divided up something like this:

Tax dollar division for fiscal year 1999 federal budget
23 cents
Social Security
20 cents
health and medical
15.5 cents
defense
14 cents
net interest on the debt
14.5 cents
income security
5 cents
other
3.5 cents
education, training, etc.
2.5 cents
veterans benefits/services
2.5 cents
transportation

Yikes. If you're a senior citizen veteran who's into defense, this might look good to you. On the other hand, if you're like many Gen Xers, you're planning on Social Security to be dead or lame by the time you're 65. If you think education is highly important to the future of the country, then you might be bummed.

How does this compare with federal spending 20 years ago (like I was paying taxes then!)?

Tax dollar division for fiscal year 1979 federal budget
23 cents
defense
20.5 cents
Social Security
13 cents
income security
12 cents
other
9.5 cents
health and medical
8.5 cents
net interest on the debt
6 cents
education, training, etc.
4 cents
veterans benefits/services
3.5 cents
transportation

All right, just what is that "other"? Hmmmm.

Anyway, putting things in perspective, our current defense spending isn't quite so bad, but today's national debt can still get you down.

Hey, if you don't like how your money is being spent, contact your congressional representative -- 'cause the house is the one in charge of taxes and half in charge of the budget. Voting in the next election will help too.
