No offense..but its not up to you to determine their level of disability. Its an earned right that VA docs have determined to meet the level of compensation. Its not like the SSDI...it is alot harder to get certain levels of disability. Either way the point of the article is that the IRS tried breaking the law by stealing federally protected money.

Another note on VA disability. My husband had 20% disability on a back injury received in a copter crash. As a retiree, his 20% disability was taken out of his retirement pay and sent to him by VA. The only plus was he paid no taxes on that portion of his retirement. The IRS is NOT supposed to tax VA disability compensation.

Had he not been retired, he would have received a non taxable check from VA.

They broke the law by stealing money. Giving it back does not negate the fact that they broke the law. They need to be indicted, tried and generally treated as they treat average Americans.
