Homeless vets wait years for aid

Print this out and stick it on every car with one of those stupid "I support our troops" stickers on it.

I agree!

Gawd help anybody who has to depend upon the VA. Or any of our Social Services agencies, either. Conservatives, ie, cheapskates who hate everyone, including Vets, see to it that everything but the military, the police and their rich buddies are severely under-funded.

The red tape is a deliberate attempt at triage by these agencies: The weaker simply die before they get help. The stronger get fed up and find other means, though they need help, and are owed it. There is still barely enough left for those who stick it out. This is the cruel, heartless and vicious system that Republicans call "the Welfare State."

And they want to dismantle even that. Wanna know where this nagging homeless problem comes from? The Republican National Committee, and the ball-less Democrats. It isn't a natural phenomenon. It's manufactured. It's a warning to all of us: Stay in line, or that guy begging on the corner, that family sleeping in their van, that girl prostituting herself could be you. Very easily.

I know. I'm there now.
