Hey, let's do what Finland does. (I bet somebody's run the numbers, & I bet it would ultimately be a lot cheaper.)

If the federal government chose, the next Democrat administration could enact legislation that makes the VA into #Medicare4All

It's why Republican billionaires want the VA destroyed.

With Citizens United, long dead foreign petrostate despots can buy America's elections well into the future.

Funding Ai to thwart #Medicare4All

@wdlindsy

Trump's support from the young was mystifying.

They can't afford homes because the Epstein Class laundered their loot through the residential housing market.

They can't get decent paying jobs because the Epstein Class froze wage growth in the 1970's to "control inflation".

They're told the nation it "can't afford" #Medicare4All because the Epstein Class bought tax cuts for themselves.

They can't have clean air or water because the Epstein Class colludes with petrostate despots.

Reminder of the extractive nature of American tech & their fossil fuel funded overlords.

Every use of AI extracts money from local economies & sends it to people like these...

America under Trump is so odd.

After decades of kvetching about the national debt & using it as an excuse to gut the middle class, refuse to get #medicare4All , and eliminate the social safety net etc...

... the $38 trillion of the USA national debt means MAGA can't afford a war without digging themselves deeper.
