I looked up their mission statement, and i have no issue with what they do. I understand that it's a charity. Fine and good.
But WHY is this necessary? This organization was made to serve veterans (disabled) of actions post 9.11, and if i remember right, the American people in majority numbers were quite gung-ho about going to these wars and actions. Some still want to go back over there and fight ISIS and one poll i saw showed that a majority of Americans would support it.
So since we were so gung ho to go to war, why aren't we paying for these soldiers needs with our tax money? Why is a charity obviously needed to fill the gaps that we as tax payers aren't filling ourselves? I don't give a damn if our taxes have to go up...if that's what's needed then our taxes should be raised until there's enough to money to take care of every last need these vets have. And they shouldn't have any co-pays either.
I'm not sure why, but although i find this charitable organization to be noble, i'm annoyed that there's a need for its existence. Maybe i'm out of line here, but i'm sure that i'll be straightened out by some of the more informed people that might chime in on the thread if i'm wrong.

If people are donating, why do you care? It does not affect you....(you are wrong)
It's the same thing, it's a charity that makes peoples lives just a little bit better. If you have a major medical complication whether it's a veteran or just some normal person there is never going to be enough that could be done for you.

Too much money being sucked up by the illegals that have anchor babies here.. ya know.. they want that vote to go to the democratic party so they look the other way and write out the checks for free housing , food, medical and there are just so many tax dollars ... the illegals tell me.. and they get heat vouchers too. And work off the books, illegals that is and make , no lie..$1000 a week over here in NJ.. granted, they work hard but in Mexico they get $2.00 an hour over there. Then their woman get all the perks so their paychecks are all clear to spend or save.
The dems can find the money for illegals but they can't find the money or the good quality healthcare for our wounded who served and kept the enemy off our soil. The democratic party used to be for the working man.. and they looked out for them..no more.. they throw a bone to the poor as they get poorer. The unions have no representation.. here in NJ the unions suffered as the illegals took all the jobs from the housing industry. And they are starting to build here and all I see are Mexicans on every single job site I ride by...and they are most likely illegal..
Instead of focusing on fixing the problems with the VA and it's bumbling administration, and getting care to our soldiers, our current administration focuses on Rebel Flags and rainbows on the White House. Eye on the ball OBozo.

It's donations....
If they're getting everything they need, why would they need any donations? I have everything i need and i don't need a donation. I'm assuming that you have pretty much everything you need, and i doubt that you're looking for donations.
So why is there an obvious need for this organization? That's the question.

So if Bush were still the president, the VA would be taking very good care of our vets and there'd be no need for this organization? Is that what you're telling me?
Gays and Flags huh?
