You can't afford rent. You can't afford groceries. You can't afford to get sick. They found a billion dollars a day for bombs. The money exists. They just decided you don't deserve it ("INHABITANT", 20"x18", pencil on paper, ©LaurieLipton)

Interesting how the current government can fund war instantly but debates funding healthcare. We have a values problem, not a budget problem ("COLLATERAL DAMAGE 2005", 39"x34", charcoal & graphite on paper, ©LaurieLipton)
