The VA was around before “Prime Time” was around.
How much has the VA budget increased in last 5 years as more and more come home from war?
The system has been overloaded since Clinton opened it up to anyone who served, even for as little as 2 years. Clinton did NOT increase the budget or call for more staff to be hired.
The VA deserves much of the blame but the gov’t also deserves some.
I think the VA tries as hard as it can to get combat vets treatment first and this does delay appointments for the people down the list.
perhaps it isn’t right but if there are only so many hours/ docs/ PA’s in a day how would you prioritize appointments?
The problems are more in a corrupt liberal government than in the ones working in the VA. liberals want to give massive amounts to welfare for illegal aliens than to the ones that have fought four their rights.
How long did those make-believe pig farmers have to wait for their $50,000 government checks? How long do people wait for food stamps? You can get Social Security Disability by wearing a baby bonnet or telling them you don’t really know if you’re male or female.
It’s plain to see that Veterans are being ignored so that American taxpayer money can be given to buy Democrat votes.
