Health Care Reform vs. War funding

[Dangerman]

Why is it that it's hard to spend money on Health Care reform, but it's okay to spend billions of dollars on wars in Afghanistan and Iraq?

[Raineyb]

1. Indeed. Why does health care "reform" have to be at least budget neutral but when it comes to

war no one gives a damn about deficits.

2. That makes too much sense.

You're giving me a headache. :crazy:

[Fleshdancer]

3. to be fair....

Deficits NEVER matter when a republican is in the WH, war or not. Yet it's always up to the Democrats to clean up after their mess.

4. Not to mention, a war of choice, A WAR OF CHOICE!

Never in the history of our country have we struck first, till 7 years ago. And against a country that had NOTHING to do with 9/11 and that WAS known! More money has and is thrown at that war (who are we fighting against again?). The money that has been wasted would cover all of us with premium care.
