I can't help but notice that since funding the war in Iraq (now at ($600,000,000,000.00), that there are more and more pleas to American citizens to provide donations to many causes that I believe we already pay taxes to fund. Examples: natural disaters, the fight on poverty, cancer and other health needs. Since studying how many TIMES a dollar we earn is actually taxed, I believe we have the responsibility to request more be done in the areas of tragedies, medical research, health care and the war on poverty here in America. I am interested in other views on this topic. I already vote and sign petitions. How else can we make our voices heard? Do people out there see the issues I mention?
