What do Federal Taxes Pay For?

Seems like April 15th is a good day to mention this post from Mathew Yglesias with a nice chart of where our tax dollars go.

Social Security 21%
Safety Net programs 11%
Medicare, medicaid, SCHIP 20%

That means 52% of the budget is wasted.

All of these should be eliminated.
