Best place to waste a ton of money without ever being checked is healthcare. Everybody thinks nothing else is more important and even the notion of cutting expenses will infuriate folks.

I have a friend complaining about some of the cuts. I asked her, how do we know they were doing productive work or work at all? I don’t like how disorganized the cuts appear to be but just because we have x number of people doesn’t mean we need x number of people.

You want to cut medical corruption and financial bloat?

Drag the insurance companies out into the public square and gut them. All of them. They serve no function other than to insert themselves between you and hospitals and demand money from both.

Start your own insurance company and try to do better instead of complaining.

Millions dead because that moron ignored the corrupt system... I'm rooting for the flu this time.

Wait a few more months and the bird flu pandemic will decide without the shadow of a doubt whether Trump gutted medical research or cleaned up a corrupt system...
