Bernie Sanders Warns Donald Trump Against Privatizing The VA

Not surprising to hear this from Uncle Bernie one of the biggest socialist-leaning pols the country has ever known. Playing to their basic human fears is also another disservice to vets. Quality service should be more of a driver. Is there any objective fact-filled analysis anywhere which describes known advantages and disadvantages of privatization, or which actually describes what privatizing would consist of? No one knows, except that it is a bad thing. Service under the present system is already about as bad as it can get in the eyes of many. How will privatization make it worse? No one knows. Time once again for 1LT Sandy Annala to enter the fray and set the record straight with some objective insights and information about what we know already.

PO1 Tony Holland Happy New Year, thanks for the read and share, interesting!

As a veteran using the VA as my primary care provider, I am disgusted by the choices I have for my Healthcare options. Now, if I ever do get the option to go to a "civilian" for Healthcare, then I run the risk of the VA NOT PAYING FOR IT! Then it goes against my credit report as I fight with the VA and the credit bureaus to have it removed. (Ive just gone through this 6x for different tests and times the VA told me to go to the ER) My knee-jerk reaction is to go against everything Bernie Sanders says, (when he actually gets a real job, we can talk) I'm against everything that remotely smells like socialism, so the way I see it I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't. But, as a veteran, I served to preserve our freedom of speech and choice- why can't I have mine?
