Medicare4All, tuition-free college and tech school etc are not “free.” They are the use of our tax dollars - money earned by the people themselves - to actually serve the people.🧵

That “free money” about which some are so concerned is the billions of dollars in corporate subsidies given to companies already making billions of dollars; tax cuts for the very very wealthy; and defense contractors who gauge the military with impunity.

The US Government: Steals from the poor to give to the rich... they pay our representatives to do so. I've been voting democrat for 40 years and here we are. This neo-liberal trickle down has continued through R and D presidents and legislatures the entire time. Non-stop.
