Des Moines, Iowa—Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren has announced a plan to prevent, contain and treat infectious diseases as a new viral illness spreads in China. The Massachusetts senator on Tuesday unveiled a plan that includes fully funding the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s pandemic prevention and response programs. The agency has faced stiff budget cuts under President Donald Trump, including to emergency funds and global health programs that were established following West Africa’s Ebola epidemic in 2014. “Like so much else, Trump’s approach to keeping us safe from disease outbreaks is a mess,” Warren wrote in an online post announcing the plan.

Any Fauxcahontas "plan" starts with throwing a lot of other people's wampum deep into the Swamp.

Maybe have the CDC actually work to help control diseases instead of doing endless "studies on gun violence" that just try to create "evidence" to take our guns might help.
"Fully funded" is a never achieved goalpost set forth by people who have a never ending imagination on more ways to blow other people's money.

The first question that anyone should ask immediately after a barking moonbat leftist makes a proposal is: How much will this cost. Where will the boatloads of cash come from, How much will this cost me, anf finally, Whats the running total of all of your insane proposals?
The CDC proposal, alone, doesnt bother me. But couple that with free college, college tuition forgiveness, medicare for all, open borders, welfare for illegal immigrants, healthcare for illegal immigrants and the green deal, etc, etc, and your talking serious serious money. Money that we dont have.

Just finished reading the chapter on Lizzie Fauxahauntus in 'Profiles in Corruption'...this faux squaw speaks out of both sides of her mouth....she cries about corporations ripping off people, and then defends the corporations in court and shows them how to bypass paying damages...talk about a "Janus"....she helped write bankruptcy laws and then shows corporations how to get around them...truly a piece of work....reading about Sherrod Brown (never met a union he didn't like, especially their contributions)...methinks the author ought to go into hiding with a beefed up security team...

Trump cut the CDC's budget because it was getting into areas that had nothing to do with real mission such as, thanks to Obama, researching "gun violence". Like any gov't bureaucracy, success is measured as growth in budget and personnel -- and their chartered mission gets to be a bore. The result is we have a measles (measles!) pandemic in the US as their focus is distracted by other - none of their business -- interests. They don't need more money, they need to focus on what they were set up for!

Sending money to the CDC to prevent a pending infectious disease crisis is like sending Al Sharpton money to improve race relations. Useless. The CDC has yet to prevent anything. If Lieawatha really was serious, she would close th border. Nothing prevents epidemics like preventing the organism from entering the country.

Fauxcahontas has a plan for everything, and all of those plans simply consist of throwing several billion dollars at the problem and crossing her fingers that that solves everything.

Her plan for a Global Security Force that will get quickly to the epicenter of an outbreak sounds good on paper, but requires the teamwork of the ground zero country. When the WHO and CDC offered their expertise to China last week, they were rebuffed.

Heap big smoke, but no fire. This actually a song title that Arthur Godfrey sang on one of his radio shows in the 50's I don't know if it ever appeared on a record. But it fits Warren.

I'm sure throwing billions of taxpayer dollars at it will solve the problem. That's how the democrats fixed climate change, poverty, the costs of college tuition and Obamacare !

Hey Lizzy here's an idea. How about stopping illegal immigration and stopping undocumented (medical records too) foreigners from entering our country with God knows what diseases they are carrying. The Democrat Party is going to pay a devastating price no matter what these bozo pollsters say.
