This is wrong on so many levels I dont know where to start...
1. Its the scumiest plan this $@#^&%$ has leak-floated yet... (
2. Many vets dont have jobs to come back to, let alone medical insurance.
3. Many vets will need mental health services... which is barely covered at all.
4. Many vets are suffering foreclosure at home with their families evicted.
5. Many vets get shafted by the VA anyway... consider what some HMO will do.
6. US Military staffing levels are running down & this will not get people to sign up.
7. I find this proposal the most insideous slap in the face to all that serve this
country and put their lives at risk - god forbid they get severely wounded and
8. Some will need months of rehab... again, imagine an HMO saying "sorry, we
dont think you need that wheelchair, you still have one leg left."
9. This will destroy our proud NG and regular military from the inside out.
Senators slam plan for wounded vets to use private insurance
