This is another canard that really needs to be rebutted. First of all, it's not "our" money. Rather, it's the private property of the Federal Reserve, used under contract by the US and other nations as the standard form exchange.
Secondly, no one is paying taxes sufficient to actually finance the operations of government. Rather, the US and all developed nations use deficit spending. (Notes are purchased by the Fed Res, who credit the accounts of their borrower client states.)
If it wasn't for our guys sitting in the MENA controlling the juice, we wouldn't have a pot to piss in.
Whatever. You want to focus on the fact that I said “our money” instead of the fact that we no longer have a Republic, be my guest.
