Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

@rbreich it's not about priorities, it's about objectives. Our government isn't trying to create a country where everyone is healthy, happy, and safe, they're trying to create a worker class that is desperate and hungry enough to work for any wage under any conditions.

This is all intentional and will continue getting worse until capitalism is dismantled. There is no other way.
