'The military didn't want to pay for me for the rest of my life'

The proof is in the pudding. Dealing with a government that thinks everyone, especially vet's, are trying to take "their" money is causing more stress, anger and anxiety in our vets than combat. It always hurts more when your hurt by the people you trust. It's always a surprise to be stabbed in the back when your walking down your own street. All I'm going to say is this...You might think twice about angering to many combat vet's. They might come back and not have too much patience for domestic B.S., you want to screw someone out of benefits try the welfare system before the VA system. Just a thought.

You will find a growing number of patriots that are coming out of the woodwork to support our vets. Many who are Viet Nam vets, that know the meaning of disrespect. Let me assure you that I and many more like myself are thankful for, and proud of your service. the Govt. has to realize that it is "OUR" money, not theirs, and if they don't start spending to protect our constitution and freedom, they will be out of office, and new people with better views of our country and military will replace them. As for the V.A. system, perhaps Congress should get their medical and retirement from the VA, Then see how well funded and well administered it would be!
From one vet to another, I support you and am PROUD of your service!
