This Week Congress Will Vote $95 billion for Endless Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan/Pak |
|
We cannot afford expanded warfare and expanded health care at the same time.
Who will oppose the $95 billion Supplemental Appropriations which will keep U.S. troops in Iraq indefinitely and expand the senseless war in Afghanistan/Pakistan?
Shouldn't we use those funds instead to provide health care to the 45 million Americans who cannot afford it, either through an immediate Single Payer system like Rep. Conyers' H.R. 676, or a "Public Option" that leads directly to Single Payer?
What do you think?
