President Obama is drawing high praise from veterans' service
organizations
for proposing a Department of Veterans Affairs budget that would
exceed by $1.3 billion what even VSOs suggested be spent next year.
No president before ever offered a VA spending plan that surpassed
in size the "Independent Budget" presented to Congress by major
veterans groups. Obama seeks to fulfill several high-profile
promises made to veterans
during
his presidential campaign including a big increase in VA healthcare
budgets.
Changing the subject doesn't negate the FACT that Obama is proposing
that veterans' private insurance companies cover treatment of
combat-related injuries. All Dems polled on the issue opposed it, BTW.
So socialized medicine is best for them?
Or you could look at it as a benefit promised by their employer.
And the free market stinks?
They are free to use their own money or private insurance. Their choice.
