48. CUT BACK IRAQ!
I'm not sure if anyone else has said it, and perhaps it's selfish, but, you know, my tax dollars are first and foremost for us here in the U.S. Given that I don't trust what we're doing in Iraq, and that reconstruction money is not being used efficiently (it's actually being laundered and stolen), I want the Iraq adventure stopped and the money back here. ANd I want that money invested in housing, healthcare, food, education, and rebuilding our national infrastructure.

Isn't that what governments do with tax dollars? When did paying for foreign invasions and missile defence or corporate welfare get into the picture?
