Fun fact! The US is spending more on healthcare than it does on its military. By A LOT. The military gets around 4% of the federal budget, healthcare gets around 12%.

The US taxpayer pays MORE on healthcare in taxes than the the taxpayers in Switzerland or Norway!

Where does that money go, you ask? Why, to the pockets of the corpos owning private healthcare, of course!

Yep. Republicans like my family are still so focused on the idea of "welfare queens" and illegal immigrants who are sucking up their hard-earned taxpayer dollars, while completely blind to the fact that they are spending thousands in taxes and insurance premiums enriching corporate middlemen who provide little to nothing in return. So who are the real leeches?
