Recently at Reason.tv: Stop Spending Our Future!, W-2 WTF?!?!, 3 Great Reasons to Pay Your Taxes (or Else!)

Our economy is in crisis, and the government says that bold action is required.

So we're diving in head first to get things back on track.

But what are we diving into exactly?

Take a closer, detailed look at the massive, unprecedented federal intervention into our economy. The numbers behind the government's spending are simply huge, easily outstripping the New Deal, World War II, and more in inflation-adjusted dollars.

Approximately 2.40 minutes. Narrated by Nick Gillespie; sponsored by Americans for Prosperity, the Heritage Foundation, and Reason.tv.

Is it patriotic to pay taxes? And if so, who the most patriotest Americans? Who are the least? How many words are in the tax code? How much do patriotic Americans pay to prepare their taxes? How long do you have to work in a year to earn enough to pay your taxes?

The answers to these and other questions add up to one big W-2 WTF.

Produced by Meredith Bragg. Written by Bragg and Nick Gillespie.
