DONT GET ME STARTED ON THE VA, THIS IS A VERY SORE SUBJECT WITH IN THE VET ORG'S. THE PVA,DAV,VFW,AMVETS ALL GET TOGETHER EVERY YEAR AND LOOK AT WHAT IS NEEDED THEN PRESENTS IT TO THE VA. THE LAST FEW YEARS IT KEEPS COMMING UP SHORT BY AT LEAST A BILLION DOLLARS,SURE YOU CAN LOOK THAT VA FUNDING IS 40% BY THE BUSH SIDE BUT THE VA HAS HAD AN INCREASE OF 150% IN THE LAST FEW YEARS AS 10,000 OF OIF AND AFGAN VETS RETURN HOME WITH NO MEDICAL CARE AFTER THEY GET OUT. THEY NEED THE VA TO COVER THAT GAP. CO-PAYS OF 15 TO 17 DOLLARS TO US SOUNDS LIKE "WHATS THE BEEF?" BUT YOUR LOOKING AT FOLKS MOSTLY WW2 AND KOREAN VETS WHO LIVE ON SS AND THAT 15-17 BUCKS BUYS FOOD OR HOUSING. CAT 8'S ARE THE ONES WHO HAVE NO RATING OR DISABILITY SO THEIR BEING DENIED MEDICAL CARE THAT WAS PROMISE TO THEM WHEN THEY JOINED AND HAS BEEN UPHELD IN FED. COURTS. THE VA SHOULD BE MANIDTORY FUNDED! PERIOD THEY SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY GET A SET AMOUNT THEY ASK FOR WITH THE HELP OF THE IBA. BUT WHEN PUT IN FRONT OF THE WHITE HOUSE THIS YEAR IN THE DEFENSE BILL THEY REPLYED THAT IF NOT REMOVED THE PRES WOULD VETO IT. ANYONE HERE WHO HAS SERVED IN THE MILITARY CAN GO TO A VA HOSPITAL FOR TREATMENT. BUT YOU'LL WAIT A LONG TIME STILL. BUT ITS YOUR RIGHT. SO WHY WONT THE CONGRESS PASS IT? CLOSING DOWN VA HOSPITALS IS A CROCK OF SHIT! MOST TRAVEL NOW 30 50 MILES FOR CARE,NOW WHAT HOURS OF DRIVING TO GET THE NEEDED CARE? THE VA SUFFERED UNDER THE CLINTON AND BUSH SR TOO BUT WE WERENT IN THIS WAR ON TERROR. YOU CAN ELECT BUSH BUT IF WAYS ARENT CHANGED VETS ARE GOING TO BE IN FOR A SHOCK WHEN TURNED AWAY. I KNOW SOME SAY "BIG DEAL,IT DOESNT EFFECT ME" GO IN THE WAITING ROOM AND ASK HOW MANY PLANED TO GET SICK,LOOSE MEDICAL COVERAGE FROM THEIR JOB GOING OVERSEAS,CUT BACKS,LOST INVESTMENTS,MEDICAL PROBLEMS THEN ASK "WHATS THE BIG DEAL". WASHINGTON HAS TO CHANGE FOLKS, BUT BY LAW THE PVA AND DAV CANT SUPPORT POLITICAL OFFICE CANDIDATES. AND BEING A MEMBER OF BOTH NOW YOU KNOW WHY I SIT ON THE FENCE. MONEY TALKS,B.S. JUST PILES UP. |
