This chart does not account for the additional fact that fewer people are actually paying in to the tax coffers.....more of them are driving their new cars from their rent-controlled residences to the grocery stores to buy steaks and beer with food stamps while talking on their free phones.....

This is not the United States of America I grew up with so proud of her power and achievements on the world stage. This congress and president have me ashamed of what they have done to this once proud nation!
