Original Note:
US assistance to Ukraine is 5.6% of the defense budget. There is no direct correlation between taxes deducted from paychecks and the defense budget. Payroll taxes fund Social Security, Medicare and unemployment. State income tax rates vary: some states have none. https://cepa.org/article/its-costing-peanuts-for-the-us-to-defeat-russia/ https://www.adp.com/resources/tools/tax-guides-and-forms/state-and-local-tax-guides/state-tax-guide.aspx https://taxfoundation.org/state-income-tax-rates-2022/
