Nearly a 103K each.

Of course there is the money to administer it and then there are campaign donations to Democrats out of that....

So nearly $3K each?

And last night I saw an ad where one guy is preaching that EVERY veteran should be signing up for VA Disability benefits.

I’ve been down the VA Disability rabbit-hole on here, more than once. But, for those of you that do not know, it’s pathetic.

Only two things left to do. Folks are going to have to make a decision as to which one they choose.

Why the hell are we taxpayers being required to pay the pensions of union members. Well of course corrupt democrats always use taxpayer funds to pay off their supporters and voters, that (plus cheating) is how they stay in office. The rest of the country are saps.

Yup. But, really, that has been going on for a long time. The Dems will never bail out non-union pensions; just union pensions.

Hey it doesn’t have to be legal since the democrats are doing it. Who is going to stop it, the Congress, DOJ, FBI? No one.

Well, at least he is spreading the cash around the USA this time.

You taxpayers have been paying all the pensions for the Ukraine Government for a year now, so if you looking for some ‘bright side’ at least you got this goin’ for ya.
