You still actually believe the money is being spent on the so called 'global war on terror'?

If you would actually bother to read the official budget release by the Department of the Treasury, yes, that is exactly what it is called.
And no, I wouldn't change my mind if I were in that situation. Anyone who thinks they're not getting health care because 5% out of a massive $22 trillion dollars has been spent on the GWOT, I'd say they lack common sense.
Unless of course you have some sort of frickin' evidence that proves the money being spent in Iraq and Afghanistan could FIX the stupid health care problem that exists in the United States right now, and ends up creating situations like this.
Somehow I doubt that though. For some dumb reason it is 'cool' to jump on the 'anti-war' bandwagon, and blame the costs of Iraq/Afghanistan on every social program in the US that is screwed up. Money is not the issue here, money has never BEEN the issue, but because people are too lazy to research or even CARE about what is going on, money will continue to be the ideal thing to blame, and whenever there is a problem, people will always want to throw more money at it, hoping for a solution.
