But be pay for it....through higher taxes in the next 50 years. Something I'm sure you oppose.
You do realize there are 20 million Veterans and about 7 million in the VA health system now? Provide insurance to that 13 million for say 10k a pop to the tax payer that's a cool 130 billion. The those 7 million in the system now.. maybe a hundred thousand on average per vet per year, what's that 7 trillion..
If the American tax payer would pay for it I have no problem with your suggestion but we both know they wont pay far more than they are paying now.
The VA can and does work well for a majority of Veterans at a reasonable cost to the taxpayer. The goal should be to fix whats broken not start over with a far costlier system in the long run.
OK. I’ll pay my part. The VA is full of evil.
