Universal Healthcare

Written by: Eddison W on Jul 20, 2009 9:04 AM EDT

I do support universal healthcare. The issue of a 1.8 trillion dollars budget deficit for 2009 and 1.2 trillion dollars projected for 2010 will be the real issue when it comes to finding the money to make it happen. Put in context, the total revenue for the United States Government for 2009 is projected to be $2.7 trillion dollars and we are 4.5 trillion in expenses.

The entire budget for 2010 is 3.6 trillion dollars. Our projected revenue is 2.4 trillion dollars. The question, is where do we find the money to cover the cost.
