How many things that I pay in taxes go directly to commercial business.
I'll give you just a handful of examples:
Halliburton, and the numerous defense contractors like them.
Booz Allen (contractor to the CIA and NSA)
Wakenhut Security (provides security-to and also runs several prisons)
Ratheon (defense contractor)
Boeing (defense contractor)
Lockheed Martin (defense contractor)
General Dynamics (defense contractor)
AT&T (telecom)
Verizon (telecom)
Level3 (telecom and fiber optic provider)
SpaceX (provides orbital transport for government satellites)
The Trump Corporation (hotels and resorts housing traveling DOD officials)
Rudy Giuliani (lawyer to President Trump)
Sidney Powell (now former lawyer to President Trump)
The Public Interest Legal Foundation (filed lawsuits alleging voter fraud)
Judicial Watch (filed lawsuits alleging voter fraud)
True the Vote (filed lawsuits alleging voter fraud)
I could go on, but I think you get the idea.
