Some Lies and Truths about income taxes
One type of federal tax that Americans unwittingly pay is income tax. Lie 1: Federal income taxes are the main source of revenue for the federal government, contributing over 40% of its yearly tax revenue. TRUTH: NONE of the money you pay in federal income taxes goes to programs that benefit the people of America. President Reagan discovered via the Grace commission that it all goes to paying interest only on the national debt. Where does the U.S. Government get money for federal programs? It borrows it from the Federal Reserve, which is why we have a $20 Trillion dollar national debt.
