The sadder thing is we already pay more per capita for Healthcare than anyone else. We don't even need any money from the pentagon to get everyone Healthcare. There's enough already. We just need to end all the inefficiencies and profit taking and things like private insurance.

Or how invasive the government is about welfare, social security, or unemployment.

thats all about causing pain to the right kinds of people. theres only one side of the isle in the united states who performs/initiates the ridiculous scrutiny of social services
