‘So, what you’re proposing is a VA system that provides no care but care for service connected problems? If a vet with service connected problems develops, years after active service, health problems with no connection to service, that would not be covered?”

If its service connected it would be covered.

If its not service connected it wouldn’t. Whats so hard about that. Why does my service entitle me to free medical care for life?

LOl, you’ve just condemned they way the VA medical system has operated at least since WWII. I know many veterans from WWII who received medical care for all sorts of non-service related conditions until their death.

Start writing your representatives and try to get that policy implemented.
