"This chart compares the medical and health spending by the federal government
with that of state and local governments. In 1929, such federal spending was much
less than state and local spending, and continued to be less in 1965. But in 1970
the comparison was much different, and in 1974 when HEW spent more than $28 billion,
local and state governments spent less than half that amount. This is what happens
when centralized government makes puppets out of local and state governments by the
device of spend and spend, tax and tax, elect and elect."

"This chart comparing public and private spending for health is based on data in the January, 1975, Social Security Bulletin which, by its comments appears to take pride in the fact that public spending for health which was about 25% of all spending in 1960, has now risen to become nearly half of all spending for health."
