The VA has become overburdened with veterans seeking medical care because of the private sectors failure to provide benefits for employees. (Or deliberate avoidance.) And, then, of course there is the issue of unemployed veterans. Not that it would make much difference if they HAD a job..............See above statement.

But, Oh no; Can't blame the "job creators", it's not politically correct. Republicans get horribly offended when you do that!

My sister has two jobs now, but still must use her VA benefits for healthcare. And, she is not alone. In fact this problem is growing.

Obamacare is a lame attempt to address this issue. If we ever end up with socialized medicine, it won't be because soshialism has triumphed, it'll be because capitalism has failed us.

Have a Great Day!

Dave
