Stop bailing out our enemies. Twenty billion would have gone a long way to provide healthcare.

As a Canadian I know universal health care is a human right not a privilege. I’ve had over 20 orthopaedic surgeries and never paid a cent. My kids had to be hospitalized and no bills. I don’t know how you Americans tolerate any government that does not provide universal healthcare. You’re supposed to be the richest country on the planet. What gives. By the way Canadians are well on their way to universal dental care now. My sympathies go out to your families that worry about coverage but really you guys need to stand up as a nation and demand if not universal but affordable healthcare. Oct 18 NO KINGS March is coming. Back the Dems, democracy and your freedom and rights. There is strength in numbers. ELBOWS UP AND GLOVES OFF AMERICA.

The current regime has created a health care nightmare by extending tax cuts for billionaires without a plan to protect the American people.
