"...Space. The place where British people do not go because the British space programme is, what, two guys with a really long stick?”
“In that way, Jed, it is very much like U.S. healthcare.”

28,000,000 adults in the US have no health insurance because even with Obamacare, health insurance is still too expensive for them.
3 out of 4 Americans work for a company that does not offer them health insurance.
Uninsured people who end up in the hospital receive fewer diagnostic tests and services and have higher mortality rates than insured people in the hospital.
Since the passage of Obamacare, health insurance companies have seen their profits and stock prices rise higher and faster than nearly any other type of company in the S&P 500.
Plus we don't have a space program either.

I think Republicans killed off the space program. No money in it, not in the short term.
