'I Want Your Money' Documentary Screens Sunday

Ever wonder where all your tax money goes to? is offering a good primer on the subject Sunday.

That's when they'll be screening the new documentary, "I Want Your Money", a film that puts the spotlight on the massive debt being accumulated by the federal government, and what to do about it.

The screening is free and is part of the Tea Party's "Freedom Fest 2012".  It will be held at 2 pm on Sunday, April 15, at Buddies Tavern at 227 Johnson Lane in Parlin. 

Dave Corsi, a member of the NJ Board of Directors for Fair Tax Nation, will lead a discussion on the film and the federal debt following the film.

According to the film's director, Ray Griggs, there are two versions of the
American Dream which stand in sharp contrast.

"One views the money you earned as yours and best allocated by you." Griggs said in a statement. "The other believes that the federal government, using taxpayers' money, should play a major role in leveling out the nation's wealth to guarantee [the same] outcomes to all, regardless of effort."

The film, Briggs said, contrasts the two paths the country can take by using the words and actions of Presidents Barack Obama and Ronald Reagan.

Corsi, who will be leading the discussion after the film's presentation, ran as a candidate in the 2010 Republican primary. He had hoped to face off against 6th District Congressman Frank Pallone, a Democrat. Corsi is District 12 coordinator of Fair Tax Nation, an organization that seeks to replace all federal taxes on income with a single rate federal sales tax.
