Good point. If government spending was geared towards saving lives, the healthcare legislation would have been slam-dunked a long time ago. I think I heard a statistic on TV within the last few days that 85,000 people died in the U.S. in 2008 alone because they couldn't get adequate healthcare in time to save their lives.
