21. Here's where I disagree
Edited on Fri Aug-25-06 08:53 PM by MissWaverly
I think that Universal Health Care is a good idea, esp. since the corrupt corporations are dumping
those on their pension health plans into the government health system so they can save bucks.
BUT the issue I have is that we are broke, we have tripled our defense spending, much of which
is for pork, or cold war weapons that should have been mothballed or never left the drawing board
back in the 1950s. Who needs an aircraft carrier the size of Arkansas anyway? And we are in
debt up to our eyeballs to the Chinese for Bush's IOU War and the economy is in the crapper. I think that need to make priorities here like Global Warming, Gulf Coast, 9-11 victims, veterans
and education. I don't think we can do it all, and I do think we will have to pay down the debt.
But I think we should investigate and seize assets of those who stole from us.
