A man or woman enlists in one of the armed services of the United States of America.
They are sent to a foreign land to fight for democracy.
They experience body-shattering and mind-shattering events that they bring back home with them.
Then—
When looking for disability coverage, they are challenged or denied.
When looking for care of the cancer, they’ve discovered they are denied.
They must wait ~6 months to see a doctor when approaching the VA system.
As of March 10th, 2025, there is talk of reducing the Department of Veterans Affairs by 80,000 jobs.
What I don’t get is how that—
Meets our commitment as a nation to honoring and supporting those brave souls who have risked everything to support our great country.
Why is this happening?
I think this is happening because we’re cutting spending on the middle to lower classes to support the tax cuts for the top 1%. The rich (Top 1%) get richer, and the poor, well…
But I’m probably being too pessimistic. Please show me another reason for this that places our veterans first…
