it's amazing.
not just because i've seen this piece from begining to end.
but because of all the extensive detail you went into. the information
you researched, it was more of a "project" then piece. as is most of your work.
and as you said in the description, most people are completely unaware as to where
their money is really going. completely non-educated or minimally such, that they
do not realize nor know what the goverment is spending their money on.

fantastic piece Jess.
definitely a fav, and definitely remarkable.

So as a marine should i die because the govt decided to buy me an old jammed AK 47 as opposed to a brand new m16a2?

Just jerkin your chain.

It looks like alot of work went into that as well as thought. Very nice work.

Why do we spend more on jets than we do on public housing?

Because the United States is not a socialist nation.

Why is the Endowment for the Arts so small?

Because the arts support themselves. The government has no place in it.

Whats with all this foreign military financing?

Well...yeah, aside from Israel, I can't justify it.

This is amazing, really. The effort you must have put into this is fantastic! Whether people agree or not, they've got to appreciate somebody going to such lengths to get the facts. Thank you
