This stuff makes me sick

I came across this on another website. My wife has to go to the local VA. This is the kinda crap I hate about hospitals in general, how they make you feel pressured and like you don't have any freedom over your own body even. I saw a doctor come into my wife's room one time and scream and yell at her to get some surgery, which after having another doctor give a second opinion, turns out she didn't even need in the first place!

We Vets need to take charge of the VA and the services they provide. After all the VA is ours, not theirs. When I get back Stateside I plan on doing just that...Organize on a National Level and take it to the .Gov...Enough is enough..

Folks signing up with the Continental Army were promised land grants and cash money.  Neither was forthcoming at the end of the conflict.  This is nothing new, but we have had well over 200 years to correct our ways.  I think the time is right.
