You would have been more correct to say no one here cares what your answer is..

How much did we spend on Medicare and VA enrollment and records? The VA health costs 52 billion this year and the Tea Party isn't complaining are they? Total VA costs are double the historic average. 45% of veterans separating are applying for disability. At this rate it would be cheaper just to give everyone separating a check for $100,000. Entitlements good, something that looks like welfare bad...very bad.

Oh, I never expect RWNJs to ever care what my answer is to anything, which is proven when they continue to argue with me after totally losing the argument.

No, I said no one that is posting on here cares what the answer is, that doesn't mean they don't care about whining about anything and everything about Obamacare.

Also, I was simply making an observation on the posts that I was reading in this thread. I thought that was obvious.

Obama is like a madman when it comes to spending. He lacks all responsibility when it comes to the financial health of this country.

Medicare is a benefit you get for being forced to pay into the system your entire life, VA benefits are part of what is offered to people when they serve their country. If you want to eliminate Medicare benefits you could probably do that over the next one to two centuries by slowly ramping the program down. If you want to eliminate VA benefits you can do that too but you'll only be able to do it with younger people joining the armed forces and that is certainly isn't going to work out either.
