What is the realtime cost for "FREE COLLEGE"? What is the realtime meaning of "ILLEGAL" as in alien, or realtime meaning of "LOAN" as in student loan, or realtime meaning of "CLASSIFIED" as not to be put in personal emails, or realtime meaning of "READ" as in what always should be done when passing a national healthcare bill. I could go on and on with this. The one realtime meaning I know for sure is "POLITICIAN": (a person who acts in a manipulative and devious way, typically to gain advancement within an organization).

You have obviously been brainwashed. But, the lazy find it easier to listen to someone lie to them, than to do some research. Do you know how much of the year to year budget goes to entitlements, compared to how much goes to the ONLY Constitutional mandate the gov has....National Defense? Before speaking/writing foolish verbiage again, you might want to think or research what you are going to discuss. Because you are just making a fool of yourself.

By the way, you don't even know how Medicare works. And NO, I do not and have not ever used Medicare. I have private insurance, full coverage. Another thing you should do is go to the Medicare website and learn something of it.

Our military budget is smaller than you would think. By percentage of GDP, our military budget is smaller than Israel's. Besides, as I said before National Defense is a Constitutional Mandate. Freebies are not.

And if not for our military, you would be speaking German, Japanese or Chinese by now.

:agree:

BS. You pick up a pencil and use compound interest on what I spent out of my paycheck for the Medicare that I will never use. Because all it covers is Hospitalization. Otherwise, if you want anything more than that, you continue to pay out of your Social Security check each month for Medicare B, C, and D. So, don't even bother telling me that I have already used my allowance of Medicare, because I haven't. And thanks to Obamacare, my private insurance has gone up in premiums, out of pocket and co-payments. And tests that my wife used to have covered are no longer covered. Thanks to your messiah in the White House and those idiots the Dems in congress. Can't blame that on the Republicans either.
