The biggest axe that I have to grind with our federal government is having to forfeit almost a third of my income to income taxes; especially when there's no accountability.  I don't believe our nation should be automatically filling the nation's defense budget with an annual $800 billion unchecked.  Voters use to cry over having to pay down a $1 trillion national  debt, now we're looking at $20 trillion and no end in sight.  And don't blame President Obama.  Congress is responsible for managing the nation's debt and they vote on a national budget every year.  Federal and state pork has run amuck.
