Something to think about. Universal health care is great, but it is not cheap.
I'm thinking...maybe, just maybe we could pull our troops out of Japan and Germany (the war has been over for 65 years)

Maybe pull out of Korea (war has been over for over 50 years)

Pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan.

And pull troops out of the other 80 + countries that we are occupying.

My guess is we could then pay for everybody to go to the doctor AND cut our taxes too.
