AOC - Missing $ 21 Trillion could have funded 66% of Medicare For All

A few quick additions of the military budget over the past twenty years shows that 21 Trillion is more than twice spent.
Since budgets have increased dramatically over that period, it's not too big a guess that the nation has *NEVER* spent 21
trillion dollars on the military since the founding of the republic.

What's scary is that - in LIEU of that - she STILL wants to fund "Medicare for All", knowing it would cost more than
we have EVER spent on the military.

Brian Riedl, Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, explained why Ocasio-Cortez's tweet was utter lunacy, noting that the Department of Defense has not even spent $21 trillion in the over 70 years that it has existed.

As I observed - her Medicare for All will STILL cost more than the entire defense budget in the history of this nation.
It would STILL only cover two thirds of her projected cost - and that's every bullet, battleship, tank and paycheck.
