How do you plan to pay for that?

There's a tendency, in political arenas, when someone wants to do something (medicate for all, for example), to ask the question, "How do you plan to pay for that?"

Peter Block writes about when time or money enter the conversation as reasons not to do something: "The problem here is one of motivation, not time or money."

Here's another avenue--we're already paying taxes--wouldn't it be nice if something like healthcare were taken care of as part of the bargain?
