Taxation weighs heavy as six years of war costs cited

The article cites Mr Boutwell's figures showing $383,323,940 collected from federal taxes last year, with total government take near $400 million per year and over six years about $3,000,000,000 from war sales and taxes. It questions why debt reduction totals only $284 million from three trillion and accuses extravagance and corruption of draining the funds.
