Why do our congressmen and women refuse to fight for our vetetans, and change the laws that hurt us?

We are expendable. Used up and thrown to the side

Pretty ambiguous. Cite your sources.

No money to be made taking care of Veterans. We are a very small minority anymore without a draft.

This might sound stupid, but #ALLLIVESMATTER. That would apply to the common person with common sense. When dealing with people who's lives depend on the generosity and money of others, the common man really doesn't matter anymore. Do you think for one second Walker, Clinton, or Rubio know who any of us are or what we did? I can tell you they know the names of virtually every mega-millionaire and billionaire donor. When there's no headlines or money to be made, we and those like us no longer matter. BTW many of us on here are purple heart recipients; maybe even a few quiet MOH'ers I don't know. Is there a ship named after any of us?

Because they are not a large enough voting block. I think IF we started throwing more political weight around, we would be able to see more political action.
