genuine drivel redacted by some dead poet
The study's authors warn that the health care
legislation "would do
virtually nothing for the uninsured until 2013" and
would "leave at
least 17 million uninsured over the long run when
reform kicks in,"
leaving many veterans still without care.
Why not simply adjust the means-testing favorably for
veterans (ref.
"Spinal Tap")?
...in response to a specious argument, btw.
And I do not remember being promised lifetime medical
when I joined the
Air
Force. They cover service connected injuries, but did
not promise
medical
for those not retiring from the service And they do take
care of those
with
service connected problems. My brother is an Agent
Orange vet, and gets
his
care via the VA. Good care also.
I think vets deserve better. I'm sure you disagree.
I think it depends on what you did in the military. I
bounced around
in the North Atlantic, kept the godless communists out of the
Chesapeake bay and I don't think the VA owes me anything.

My father had a European theater medal with 2 battle stars,
CIB, a
couple other campaign medals, 2 purple hearts and he was a
POW. He
deserved the care he got.
And yet, unless you were injured somewhere along the line,
it matters
not what you faced.

What happens, like in the case of Agent Orange and a hundred
other
chemicals vets were exposed to, symptoms don't show up for
years and
aren't directly attributable to the exposure, the trauma,
the ugliness
that is war.

Are those vets any less entitled?
They get taken care of. Agent Orange effects showed up later
so they
covered those exposed.
After a long fight over recognizing the effects. It took
decades from
what I recall.

Excellent coverage, eh?
Yup, my brother gets excellent coverage. And his wife is
covered also because of his coverage. But she did spend a
couple years in the Army.
By gov't run health care?? I'm shocked.

Gov't run does not mean cheaper. And he paid a lot for that
health care. Sleeping in a tent, getting shot at, friends getting
killed, and working in the chemical. Your point?
The gov't does somethings quite well!

Over spend money for one. And the Fed's do a well at doing a
worse job than local government in education.
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you're saying. I need it in
something resembling English... no offense intended. Could you try
again....

Thank you Mr Duck. I don't mind being corrected when I make a Typo. I
expected Donnie would pick up on it but his mind seems to be occupied
with other things.

His daddy/lover Harry didn't tell him to yet.

I almost forgot about those ties that bind.

They're both quite easy TO forget!
