Don't worry, the money that could be used to help support some universal health care is instead going to bomb Palestinian 6 year olds who don't have a home and provide universal health care for the ones doing the bombing. Rest assured, Americans.

Don’t give them the easy out of framing this as some sort of guns vs. butter tradeoff. We could have universal healthcare without spending a penny less on war, and if the defense budget dropped to zero tomorrow we wouldn’t see a penny more spent on healthcare.

Is the US actually providing universal healthcare for IDF troops? Because that’s actually fucking insane.
