We are in debt because 75% of congress is actively trying to destroy this country. Can you just imagine how great this country would be congress simply wanted what is best for us.

If you have to spend 100M to sell a product it probably ain't all that great.

There was a huge push to enroll people on the taxpayers dime during the previous administration

So we pay 100 million to advertise for something that we have no other option to buy anyway.
Never forget that our elected Republicans allow for this this

Just another way to grease the media. Then take that money to hire more liberal media. That's how we've gotten to the point of the biased MSM

Not one cent should be spend on any advertising for entitlements. That includes food stamps, social security, disability, housing, etc. If people are truly in need, they'll figure out how to get assistance.

I'd say FEMA is probably an exception, but that's where I'd draw the line.

Good. Then you agree, we saved 100 million that was being spent stupidly.

Coke also makes billions in profits to justify that huge expense.

ObamaCare just loses people good healthcare and their money and gets the government lots of debt.
