You think we would owe our Vets better than that. Makes you wonder if the govt does that bad a job with medicade (POOR) medicare (OLD) and VA (vets) what makes people think that govt run health care would be better for the rest of the population not already covered ???
Exactly dude. This has been going on for decades and it's a blatant pissing on the Vets, it's absolutely atrocious.

Usually when someone strikes out 3x on something I expect to get the same results or worse out of them in the future on other similar things. Not to mention how they totally miss managed social security. I wont see a dime from social security in 40 years from now but I have already paid a ton into it.
Yup. This is why I advocate a purely free market. Yes, we get corruption on Wall Street and in the private sector. How do we combat this? We let them fail when they fail. What did we do? We bailed out those that screwed over American citizens. When something fails, it's because the American people have deemed it unnecessary at that point in time, regardless of the reason. When that happens, it's time to move on to something else.
