5. LIFE EXPECTANCY: Men's life expectancy is seven (7) years shorter than women's [National Center for Health Statistics -- males 72.3 yrs vs females 79 yrs] yet receive only 35% of government expenditures for health care and medical costs.

7. FEDERAL TAXES: Men pay 115% of federal income taxes [ menpy115.htm]
8. VOTE: There are 11.1% more female voters than male voters SO the male vote has little influence on how the male tax dollar is spent.

18. LEGAL SYSTEM BIAS: 96% of physical altercations resulting in injury to a spouse occurs AFTER the date of separation. [Read: spousal abuse laws that pretend that husbands are dangerous discriminate against husbands when we know that only a very small percent of domestic violence is associated with them]. [Chadwick and Heaton, "Statistical Handbook of the American Family"]
19. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: 58% of the above mentioned physical altercations are initiated by the female. [Read: despite the fact we discriminate against husbands in protective orders, women still cause more than half of domestic altercations. It is as if they know they can get away with it]. [ibid.]

21. FAMILY BREAKDOWN: The US Surgeon General notes that divorce is more harmful to a man's health than smoking tobacco, yet $1.3 Trillion of federal expenditures accomplish nothing less than to underwrite family breakdown.
