The amount of cash the federal government collected from us, individuals, in income taxes, and the total amount of money the Fed spent both set records in fiscal 2019. Here are the stats. Individual income tax revenue, that's income tax for working people, $1.7 trillion. Corporate tax revenue, $230 billion. Total tax revenue, including

Social Security taxes, customs duties, $3.4 trillion. Again, that is a record amount of money going to Washington, D.C. But it's not nearly enough. That's because last year, 2019, the Fed spent $4.4 trillion. Unbelievable. A trillion more than the government took in. Estimated deficit for the coming year, $284 billion. This is crazy. But Americans are not crazed about it because they can't see deficits in debt. It doesn't directly affect them right now, but it will. So what are the Fed spending the money on? Department of Health and Human Services spends $1.2 trillion. That's on Medicare, Medicaid, other welfare services for Americans who need support, and there are tens of millions of them. Social Security, what?

$1.1 trillion. Department of Defense, $650 billion a year, a record amount under President Trump, who has pledged to, quote, rebuild the military. Interest on the Treasury debt we have, just interest, $570 billion a year. That's wasted money. Now, Democrats running for president promise to increase spending in a massive way. Medicare for all, Green New Deal, entitlements like free child care for every baby and free college. If the Democrats get power, the economy will likely collapse underneath all that debt. So I'm becoming Paul Revere here. Instead of the British are coming, bankruptcy is coming. You simply cannot tax individual Americans anymore. And there are not enough rich people in the country to even come close to funding the federal debt. As far as corporations are concerned, if you

raise taxes on American companies, many of them will leave the country. As you may know, President Trump brought back a lot of corporate assets from over. overseas by cutting taxes, and that is one of the reasons we have a vibrant economy. If the reverse happens, the economy will crater. And forget about a recession, the United States could go into a depression. All of this spending has to be reined in. If President Trump is re-elected, he must be more fiscally responsible, or the country will pay a huge, price and soon. And that's a message.

Now the O'Reilly update brings you something you might not know in honor of Halloween tomorrow. During the golden age of cinema, universal pictures released more than 80 classic monster movies. Dracula, Frankenstein, the wolfman, the mummy, stuff like that. Americans loved a good thrill at the theater, slapping down 25 cents for an evening of fright. The movies would often repeat storylines, but customers did not seem to care. The actors playing the monsters, some of them anyway, became big stars.

But what exactly happened to them? Here we go. Lon Cheney, the Phantom of the Opera, the original guy, started more than a hundred 50 movies in his lifetime. Cheney famous for doing his own makeup using egg membranes, fish skins, a bald cap, even sticking wires up his nose to create the signature skeletal look for his iconic role of the Phantom. Laun Cheney died from throat cancer at age 47 while negotiating his next big role, Dracula. That part ultimately went to a little-known actor named Bella Legosi. Mr. Lugosi went on to hit it big, acting in more than a hundred movies, many for Universal.

His turn as Count Dracula is considered by many to be the classic portrayal. Make up costume mannerisms all created by Lugosi himself on set. Bella Lugosi died of a heart attack in 1956 at age 73. At his funeral, attendees were shocked. He was buried in his signature Dracula cape. From the castle to the lab where Boris Karloff played Frankenstein's monster, no less than three times. Legendary makeup artist Jack Pierce created the signature look for the monster. Carlisv spent hours in makeup and was forced to wear four-inch platform shoes weighing 13 pounds each.

And here's something you might not know. Towards the end of his career, Boris Karloff starred in a number of voiceover roles. may recognize him as the Grinch in the 1966 holiday classic how the Grinch stole Christmas. So this Halloween dial up a classic horror flick and leave the chainsaws to the amateurs. Right back. Bill O'Reilly here with an important message.
