  Let’s make Americans healthier by…

  Letting them eat more contaminated food. Still no healthcare though!

  Why is Dr. Oz making a comment about the deficit in the first place? He’s supposed to be a medical doctor, not an economist.

  Doctors should be saying what is healthiest, not what makes money for the government. His priorities are out of whack.

  Back in the 1960s there was talk about reducing the work week to 25 hours.

  That was before Nixon got elected.

  One year means a higher chance of death so they can avoid paying out social security.

  $1 trillion is how much m4a would save annually, along with 114,000 American lives. Also annually.

  We’re paying a trillion a year to kill 114,000 Americans, and neither party thinks that’s bad enough.

  Honestly, I’d rather he think “Make them healthy enough they can work more,” instead of “Make them poor enough they can’t retire.”

  Feels like choosing between a dog bite and bear bite.

  This petty shit they are doing pretending to care about finances while blaming laying the burden on the people, while literally pillaging the treasury to line their own pockets, and wasting billions more on needless wars and other Trump vanity projects, it really is the pinnacle of arrogance.

  Watch, they’re going to spend over $1t to advertise to get Americans to “feel healthier” just to raise the age… They won’t actually do anything beneficial.

  70 more years now and they’ll understand that the whole socialism thing actually makes sense as well. Just like taking paying and taking care of your workers actually results in higher and longer production
