Healthcare Spending Now Accounts For Almost One-Fifth Of The Entire U.S. Economy

Everybody agrees that healthcare costs are way too high.  Back in 1960, healthcare spending accounted for approximately 5 percent of GDP, and by 2020 it is being projected that healthcare spending will account for 20 percent of GDP.  And when you break those numbers down into actual dollars, they become even more staggering.  Back in 1960, an average of $146 was spent on healthcare per person for the entire year, but today that number has skyrocketed to $9,990.  On a per capita basis, we spend far more than anyone else in the world on healthcare.  In fact, we spend almost twice as much as most other industrialized nations on a per capita basis.  Something has gone terribly wrong, and we desperately need to get this fixed.

Now We Have Learned That The Texas Church Shooter Was A Hardcore Atheist

Devin Patrick Kelley was a devout atheist that “hated Christians”, and that may help to explain why he specifically chose a church as his target.  According to Gateway Pundit, Kelley’s Facebook page (which has now been deleted) showed that he had liked pages such as “Atheist Republic” and “Friendly Atheist”.  Authorities tell us that the primary reason he attacked the First Baptist Church of Suthlerland Springs was because his mother-in-law was a member of that congregation, but if he had any respect for human life at all he wouldn’t have tried to kill everyone there – including all of the small children.

Should Donald Trump Stop Tweeting? If Your Answer Is ‘NO’, Please Like And Share This Article

Should Donald Trump stop using Twitter?  For those of us that love Trump, the answer is obvious.  Personally, I love the fact that President Trump uses social media to speak directly with the American people.  In times past, presidents always had to rely on the mainstream media to convey their messages, and the mainstream media always twists things.  And so if anything, I would actually like to see President Trump use Twitter even more.  But the mainstream media absolutely hates that he is going around them, and so they are always trying to convince us that he needs to stop.

Woman That Lost Her Arms, Legs And Unborn Child To A Tragic Pregnancy Is Still Praising God

The Amazing True Story Of How Hillary Clinton Secretly Cheated Bernie Sanders Out Of A Fair Shot At The Democratic Nomination

Yes, Hillary Clinton really did steal the Democratic nomination from Bernie Sanders, but most people have absolutely no idea how she actually did it.  In the end, it was all about the money.  A secret joint fundraising agreement that was made between the Democratic National Committee, the Hillary Victory Fund, and Hillary for America gave the Clinton campaign full control of the Democratic Party nearly a year before she officially won the nomination.  Normally, a presidential candidate for a major party would only be permitted to take full control once the nomination had been secured.  But in Hillary’s case, her campaign had a stranglehold over the Democratic National Committee virtually the entire time she was engaged in a heated battle with Bernie Sanders for the Democratic nomination.

A New Bill In Congress Would Prevent Any Baby With A Heartbeat From Being Aborted

A new bill being considered by the U.S. House of Representatives would make it illegal for an abortion to be performed on any fetus with a detectable heartbeat.  This bill is known as “the Heartbeat Protection Act”, and it would be a massive victory for the pro-life movement in this country if it becomes law.  So far about 170 members of the House are behind this bill, but it will need more votes than that to pass.  And even if it passes the House, it would still have to get through the Senate, and if just a few RINOS in the Senate vote against the bill that would be enough to block it.

Islamic Terrorist Shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’ Mows Down Pedestrians With His Truck Near The World Trade Center

Terror has just struck New York City once again.  On Tuesday afternoon, a “Middle Eastern man” shouting “Allahu Akbar” used his truck as a weapon in Lower Manhattan near the World Trade Center.  After careening on to a bike path and hitting numerous bikers and pedestrians at high speed, he was finally stopped after his truck rammed into a school bus.  The suspect was shot twice by the police, but according to Fox News he is expected to survive… (Read More...)
