Why are you asking Liberals only?. Conservatives are also in need of Health Care and if you believe that ALL Conservatives are against a Medicare style Health Care option then you are fooling yourself.
Right now employers pay a monthly premium on most workers to Private companies which could go to the Public Health Care system
Many employees including myself pay an extra premium for my family and myself out of paycheck. That would go towards that.
Very similar to Medicare payments taken out of your paycheck.
That would be a start.
Would you pay extra taxes if copayments and minimums where taken away?
Our country spends on the a Military more than the next 5 countries put together. Maybe we need to be smarter on how that money is being spent and not just give them a blank check.
I NEVER said cut the military. I am asking others why they target the military to cut for other programs.
And I asked you why is it that those who are against cutting the military are not demanding we pay for it. You don't get to ask questions until you answer the ones addressed to you.

to fund free healthcare and college, taxes would have to drastically go up on the middle class. Forget about the line "make the rich pay for it". There are not enough of the 1% to fund everything free for the 99%.
So...what beloved social programs would you be willing to cut to fund free health care and college?
so you target the military....why that specifically?
Because it is the most obvious choice. We have more than doubled military spending for no reason, and we are currently spending a MASSIVE $700 billion every year. We can spend half of that, and still have a military which leaves the 2nd best military far behind.
