If one REALLY wants to deal with the cost of health care for all...then deal with the money handed out for free to contractors and war profiteers who take billions every year...Not make...TAKE!KB&R paid billions to feed the troops then turn around and charge the TROOPS per plate! For every bottle of WATER in the desert! Force them to sleep in substandard facilities while the over paid contractors live with better food, better facilities and sure as hell better pay for less work....They get the prime jobs...But then let's look at the money spent on defense.c010rb1indusac010rb1indusa already brought in the cost of these two money makers for the profiteeers in the desert, the wars in IRAQ and AFGHANISTAN. While our troops bleed physically and financially, let's look at the money spent EVERY YEAR REGARDLESS if there is a war or not....Remember, BUSH paid IRAQ off budget so those dollars aren't even in the following$540 billion: Annual U.S. Defense Budget.That is 47% of the entire...the ENTIRE WORLD'S EXPENDITURE on defense.TOP 10 Countries in defense spendingUnited States $522China $63Russia $62United Kingdom $51Japan $45France $42Germany $30India $22Saudi Arabia $21South Korea $21The US # ONE! See we still are number 1 in ONE thing...Not health care; not environment, not charity, not education, not intelligence, not life expectancy, not wages, we are number 1 in selling arms to the world; in assuring we can blow up the planet more often than any other country; to kill more people than amnyone else; to destroy mnore generations with depleted uranium and other toxic materials left in th air and on the ground where ever we go...Aren't we special?OVER EIGHT TIMES the expenditure of CHINA...And we can't possibly pay for health care..Want more info on the ridiculous Pentagon budget? HUGE amounts for nothing more than toys for old children playing war and to sell to everyone on the planet so they will kill each other with our weapons...http://borgenproject.org/Defense_Spending.htmlhttp://armscontrolcenter.org/policy/securityspendi ...
