Max did a wonderful job when he was running things. We got more stuff in the Vet Center Program than from anyone else. The guy during the Reagan years, I forget his name, wanted to close down the Vet Centers or move them into the hospitals, which would have killed the program. No, don't think your Blood Pressure could handle what you'd be up against from entrenched VA Directors, etc. and would probably kill you. But most of those assholes know that Secretaries are time limited and just basically do enough to get by until the next administration gets in. My true feelings are, this will never change.
