We have programs to help some, children mostly, but many needlessly suffer and die every day. It's difficult for a single male to receive any assistance. I know a guy who has a growth on his face and can't see a doctor. It seems our priorities are mixed up. To many think the military is priority, I understand the need for defense but my god, we have no need to be able to destroy the entire Earth several times over. Many more people could be helped with that waisted money.
Many balk at the notion because they see it as others paying for their health care, but truth is it would benefit everyone. A healthy society benefits all.
It's almost like if they don't get to blow something up or kill any one, then they're not gonna pay for it!
Don't even get me started on the 25 billion dollar wall!
