Question ID: 295422
Where can I find a few chart that show (specifically) where personal
income tax goes in the US. Or, to put it another way, where can I find
some charts that that show what the government spends the money on
that it gets from tax payers.
I would like a few differant one's just I know that they 'synch-up'
with one another (are accurate).
Thanks.

Dear Puravida77, 

There are several sources and organisations that research this issue,
in order to achive accountability and transparancy regarding spending
of your tax.

Tha National Priorities Project
<http://www.nationalpriorities.org/taxday2003/taxday03.html> 
"TAX DAY FACTSHEETS 2003 (plus Related Resources)
Go to state and selected cities for Tax Day Factsheets:
Find out how the federal government spends the "typical" household's
income tax dollar in each state and selected cities and counties."

Income Tax Chart 
<http://www.nationalpriorities.org/taxes/IncomeTaxChart.html> 
from the same organisation. You enter the amount of tax paid, and get
the division of the tax into different spendings.

Another site that attempts to analyse, how your money is being spent,
is <http://www.kowaldesign.com/budget/>

More information on the current budget could be found at
<http://www.gpoaccess.gov/usbudget/index.html>

Another good site to check out research and reports on tax issues is
the conservative Naitonal Taxpayers Union NTU
<http://www.ntu.org/main/index.php>.

Taxpayers for Common Sense 
<http://www.taxpayer.net/> 
claims to be centrist and non-partisan, and to criticise government waste. 

I hope this answered your question. I searched the web looking for an
answer, using search terms as "tax" "dollars" "spent" "income".

Please contact me if you need any clarification on this answer before you rate it.
