F-35 fighter jet crashes at Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska. Pilot ejected - 28th January 2025
Considering the cost of the F35 is around $100 million, and the total annual tax revenue for America is around $4.44 trillion, an F35 cost about .002% of the US annual tax revenue.
If you pay the median amount of federal tax as an American, around $14,000 per year, this accident would cost you about .33 cents (.002% of $14,00 this year.
You will not be getting a tax rebate. Even if you did, you likely wouldn’t notice. Still makes you cringe to watch though.
