We're The Government - And You're Not.

Remember the truly horrible Civics videos of the 60's and 70's ?
What if they messed up and released an accurate one?

This is what I talk about when I say we need to be more 'culturally relevant'. This was well made, funny and should resonate with young people.

We need to email the maker of this and encourage more! Maybe there's a ton of these things already. I looked at the youtube counter and over 200,000 people have viewed this!

What a stupid video. Most tax money goes for things like military defense, police, paving roads, protecting and supporting commerce -- all good for business -- and a big chunk goes to keep our elderly parents alive and healthy. But, yes, some small amount goes for NASA, and other science, some of which seems stupid if you don't understand it. And some goes to take care of the children of the poor and a drop goes for foreign aid.

Anon,
You're forgetting one major category. Most government money goes to government employees.
And they want a monopoly on just about everything they do.
