21. 25 cent per gallon gas tax to fund the wars.
Since there is no draft the public has no stake in wars. If wars had to be funded by taxes maybe the public would take a greater interest in whether we go to war or not.

Why must every social program go thru a budget test but no matter how stupid the military spending it's never questioned??
