- It makes you wonder if that $2b would be better spent lobbying for actual universal healthcare

  Do you ever think of the poor shareholders?! You egomaniac!!
  
  But yes, that would probably a lot better. But beggars and choosers and their correlation...there was something. At least it will probably put a band-aid on many debt-ridden US-Americans. For now. Until the next problem.

Wipe out the debt, not the problem that created it in the first place. Very smart. If we held a popular vote for universal healthcare in America we'd have it by next month. If citizens actually got a fair vote in America we wouldn't have these issues to begin with. Every time debt is neglected the value of this house of cards shakes.
