On Behalf of a Grateful Nation...

Why aren't more people talking about this!!!!

The Obama Administration announced Thursday a plan to start billing private insurance companies for war and service related injuries of their subscribers who are veterans.

That's great. The economy is bad enough as it is. Veterans have a high enough unemployment rate. Who is going to want to hire them if their insurance premiums are going to be more expensive for employers? Are they going to be in a higher risk pool? If they have to pay for their premiums how are they going to afford it? This is totally unacceptable!

These men and woman sacrificed for their country, the mission of the VA as envisioned by Abraham Lincoln was to provide for those that "bore the brunt of battle"
