Why this renewed assault? “Obamacare Sucks!!!” declared the former and possibly future president. For those offended by the language, these are Trump’s own words, and I think I owe it to my readers to report what he actually said, not sanitize it. Trump also promised to provide “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” without offering any specifics.
So let’s discuss substance here. Does Obamacare, in fact, suck? And can we believe Trump’s promise to offer something much better?
Except for the military, that’s a social program.
Trump called them suckers and don’t give them healthcare.
There’s a lot to unpack in that statement.
Point is they don’t give two shits about the people in the military. Use and discard. But they like the concept of a military because rah rah USA USA we can win wars. Not because it can be argued as a social program, that part they can do without.
Again, I’m inferring that the social program is for the military weapons manufacturers because they get a shit ton of money and it helps the economy…
Military spending doesn’t help the economy, it hurts the economy. Look up peace dividend.
