    tax base in a decade or two

    That’s what I’m referring to. A healthy, well-educated population is significantly more productive than an ill and stupid one. And more productive generally translates to more taxes in the long run.

    Think of how strong of a military the US could’ve had if it were not controlled by companies looking for short term profits.
