Tax Day, so where does the money go?

Of course I have an answer for you. In February, the good folks at Google launched a project. The offered a cash reward for any developer who could develop an online application to best demonstrate how the government spends your tax dollars. The winner was Anil Kandangath for his website, www.wheredidmytaxdollarsgo.com. Simply plug in your income amount and filing status and it will provide you with a pie chart breakdown to where your tax dollars were spent.
Second place went to a site that provides you with a clock and tells you how many hours you work each day that goes to the government for taxes. Not as interesting, but insightful nevertheless.
