Here's an argument that came to me - since the Constitution allows for the federal govt to spend on behalf of defense, then public healthcare is protected - since Americans are eligible for the draft, and in the event of an invasion on our soil, healthy citizens would be better able to resist invaders.
I think there's a better argument for healthcare funding as "defense" than there is for spending trillions on the Iraqi invasion anyway - what's your take on this?
