First, I will front the tuition for a comprehensive reading comprehension course ... unless,
.... you are just trying to exaggerate the $$'s for sake of a weakening position in the discussion.
My guess is that if we had "check boxes" on your 1040's for "military spending" and "welfare spending" .... for an assignment of a sum certain for either one of those national expenditures ... that there would be more "military spending" boxes checked and more money specifically assigned for that purpose than for "welfare spending" ....
speaking of "welfare spending" ... does it offend you that tax dollars go to provide union jobs in the jobs programs and "bailout" money being wasted ... while the unions are fronting the money for protesters to appear at "wall street" to complain about the fat cats not paying more of "their share" ...
When did the tea party folks get their paychecks covered while they were "meeting"?
