re: #6 Great White Snark

Ok, can we hit the 1% for things that are actually more directly applicable to people who live in this country? Like taking care of our own citizens?

For all the progress the ACA has made, far too many Americans die because they can’t afford to see doctors. Just as an offhand example.

(Also, that still avoids the issue of cost to our troops - because deployment overseas is not easy, nor simple, even for something as “easy” as Kuwait was. My aunt missed over half my cousin’s first year because she was deployed in support of Kuwait. Do our troops really need to serve as the primary policemen for every conflict?)
