we are literally pushing ourselves away from what we should be doing

I'm literally studying biomedical science lol.
Fortunately, this stuff will probably be reversed by the time I actually enter the job market, but seriously. Anyone who supports this nonsense is just tacitly agreeing to die earlier in life.

I mean, he's not wrong that building a wall will employ some people, but look at what we're trading it for. An ineffective wall - versus medical research that keeps people alive (and working) for much longer.
I'm still not 100% sure he's actually gonna pull off building 'the wall' - but if he does, I bet that more people will lose jobs as a result of budget cuts than people employed building the wall.

this only means that donald Annoying Orange doesn't have any buddies in the medical field
