... that does not mean that the VA is good for all.
Why not, just because some can't get everything they want? When and where did the VA ever promise to take care of non-service connected injuries anyway?
Problem is too many think they're owed something for their service, when in fact, it was a privilege, not a burden, to serve America. With citizenship comes responsibility.
My own father-in-law, a WWII vet, was PO'd at the VA because they wouldn't give him free dentures. "They owe me." Sorry Pops, no they don't.

I personally know an Iraq vet who had to fight for over half a year to get medical treatment for lung damage from serving there. If you wish to think government is good go right ahead. I know government is crap for the most part. Have a nice day.
