Fifty years ago today, President Lyndon Johnson gave a speech at the University of Michigan in which he first proposed what he called the “Great Society.” So what of the Great Society on its 50th birthday? Sadly, there’s little to celebrate.
How many will die if the Department of Health & Human Services becomes to the U.S. general population what the Veterans Administration is to our military veterans?
