And they especially don’t care about VETERANS.
**********
I’m a veteran and did some consulting work for the VA some years ago. Maybe its just my particular experience but while there I never heard anyone ask “what can we do to help our veterans today?” No, the daily focus was on empire building and protecting your turf. The VA’s main concern is the VA.
And if the president and congress really cared about veterans they would be relentlessly monitoring the VA. You don’t see them doing that. They don’t do anyhting until politcal pressure is on them. When necessary, they throw some more money at the VA but don’t really solve the underlying problems.
I’m sure there are dedicated people at the working level but at the management and oversight layer it appears to be a different story.
