Nope...we should withdraw our troops from the borders of other nations until we can secure our own and stop our empire/nation building. Then maybe we can talk about paying for the most vulnerable among us. It's not fair to ask working people to foot the bill for everyone else. Our labor participation rate is barely 4% higher than the lowest point in US history.... so with that many people out of work who's going to foot the bill?  Expenses would rise astronomically much like student loan debt as soon as the government starts paying for it... or excuse me before the taxpayer starts paying for it.
