Christ, what a laundry list already...
He's got name recognition and an outlaw image. Those two alone make him a threat.
you a Michigander ty? i was thinking you were for a minute, but now i think about it, i'm pretty sure you're from colorado
If you bothered to do some googling yourself, you'd find that Americans spent a trillion dollars on health insurance premiums in 2015. That's 50% more than the entire defense budget. Total health care spending was $3.2 trillion, about $10,000 per person. Clearly, diverting 1% of the defense budget isn't going to make a dent in Americas health and education problems much less solve them.
Thank you for pointing out that insurance companies are enormously parasitic
Colorado from way back.
I didn't disagree with that.
Indeed, the only thing standing in our way are all the corporations and insurance companies who make a very handsome living fucking us over.
This about sums it up, right here.
Funny math, since it only speaks to the budget, and not eliminating a ton of bases and associated equipment, civilian jobs, etc
Fuck American health care, we are the most expensive nation on earth for health care. I'd rather have the freedom to see a great doctor in Mexico for a fraction of the price of a rookie doctor in America. I know how to better spend my money than the government.
The immenseness of your stupidity is incalculable.
It's actually genius I can even go to Cuba for free health care and not worry about taxes being raised or stolen because I won't pay for insurance.
You're the one who mentioned one percent, so there's nothing wrong with his math.
What I neglected to mention was the "Contractor Budget" which is separated from the so-called military budget. Many of whom are x military mercenaries getting quite a bit more money than our soldiers, and are not bound by the same rules of engagement. As I recall, there was ~ 70,000 of them in Iraq
Cubans pay taxes to support their "free" healthcare, "genius".
