I’m not a Veteran, so am simply looking for opinions here.
I see the VA much like HUD housing and welfare. It seems to be a low-cost (indeed, its free) but very low-quality social welfare program, designed to rope yet another group into the government dependency plantation.
Aren’t there other options? Such as private care vouchers? Tax-free status for independent veterans/health-care groups offering care? Certainly, anyone who suffered wounds caused by their service to Uncle Sam should be taken care of, but are there other options besides funneling all into a vast government bureaucracy?
So are you suggesting those who were not injured, but served, went through hell, and gave up years of their lives they never get back should be told tough luck, hit the road?
Welfare? I'm curious, what did those on welfare do to earn those benefits?
