Political Factoid
Why does the U.S. continually
pay for "unlimited war" but
not for "Medicare-for-all?"
Because most wealthy,
multi-national corporations
benefit from military
spending but not from
Medicare.
- The U.S. military protects
foreign assets and other
interests of corportions.*
- Medicare is paid for by
payroll Medicare taxes.
- Corporations do not go
to medical doctors or
to the hospital.
- There are no taxes to
specifically pay for
military or war costs.*
| * |
Corporations hire lobbyists and
fund huge political contributions,
whereas medicare beneficiaries
do not.
