"How so? 0bamacare has no mandate and no premiums? Really?"

Probably Ursus is referring to the generally bad care at VA. For 25 years my job required me to frequently visit at most of the hospitals in Northern Illinois. The VA hospitals always appeared to be substandard with generally unhelpful and often surly staff.

I was never VA patient, though my Iraqi veteran son was, and left VA treatment and paid out-of-pocket (many thousands of dollars) instead for knee surgery.

Total NONSENSE! I've never once experienced a substandard VA hospital and have always been treated with respect by very helpful staff members.

If you believe that he is comparing the care at a VA, with the care from 0bamacare, then you must be very confused. 0bamacare is a health insurance plan, not a health provider, so there is nothing to compare!
