Oppression and Mistreatment

   Our veterans deserve more than platitudes when they return from foreign wars with illnesses or disabilities. Although the veterams have a big list of benefits that have been promised they are oftenly broken due to economic reasons. The government is in charge of those benefits but when they need to send billions of money  to wars or other events they cannot afford in helping the veterans.

    Under this situations the veterans get very angry  and dissapointed with the government since they have a family to sostain and  medicines to buy. While others are receiving benefits which is good, the veterans confront difficult situations. The veterans are being  mistreated by the government by the way the taxes have raised for them. According to Ron Paul archives: Federal rules force disabled veterans to give up their military retirement pay in order to receive VA disability benefits. This means every VA disability dollar paid to a veteran is deducted from his retirement pay, effectively creating a “disabled veterans tax.” Under the new partial concurrent receipt bill, only those veterans in essence deemed “disabled enough” will qualify.  Under the constitution it is not mentioned that veterans must receive their benefits at all time so theeir must be one.

 

 In other words most shameful mistreatment of our veterans is in the area of concurrent receipt benefits.  Some arrangements must be made so that our veterans live a great life after so many years of service. The veterans keep on fighting daily through organizations to have plentiful life.
