It makes you wonder if that $2b would be better spent lobbying for actual universal healthcare
Oh yes. I'm very happy this is happening.
Good for them!
Wipe out the debt, not the problem that created it in the first place. Very smart. If we held a popular vote for universal healthcare in America we'd have it by next month. If citizens actually got a fair vote in America we wouldn't have these issues to begin with. Every time debt is neglected the value of this house of cards shakes.
Universal healthcare is the real answer.
