I've known vets that had to be driven 100 miles or more just to see some VA quack, and was no better off after the day-long ordeal of dealing with The System.

Brice, I have felt that way for a long time. Just give them a card and pay their bills, would probably save us millions each year. And, the vets would get better service. But alas, the government wants control so we have the Vets administration. I'm sure there would be abuses but not anymore than they have now.
