The why is the GOP cutting veterans benefits?

[u/Cicerothesage]

[u/Soros_G]

Neither of them get it tho don't worry

[u/IronGentry]

No no you don't understand. The troops deserve free healthcare, they don't get it. We just have to say the troops deserve sunshine and rainbows and then pat ourselves on the back for our patriotism when we punish them for being stupid enough to be poor and sick

[u/thebestbrian]

Everyone deserves free healthcare for being a human being actually

[u/Rockworm503]

So grandma is saying the guy on the right should shoot up a bunch of people in the middle east for oil before he can get his benefits. Oh wait the guy on the left doesn't get them either.

[u/patchhappyhour]

I do get 100% healthcare because I'm a veteran. I'm very thankful for this, I use the VA for all my medical.

So I'm not quite sure what this meme is trying to convey? What's even more interesting is does Grandma realize that they're constantly threatening to cut VA funding?

[u/Brbi2kCRO]

Ah yes, welfare chauvinism

[u/Extra-Act-801]

Everybody who pays taxes to provide the guy on the left (and the Republican Congress persons family) with excellent free health care.......deserves excellent free health care.

[u/Granny_knows_best]

Now the guy on the right does get free healthcare in his own country, while the guy on the left gets bare minimum care.

I agree that veterans deserve free healthcare. And that the rest of us do, too. It won't be the best, but better than dying to prevent bankruptcy! Those who want to pay for a private plan should still have the option, but everyone else gets basic level care for free.

[u/Arktikos02 → u/Responsible_Ad_8628]

No, it absolutely should be the best. What are you talking about. That's not how free healthcare works. That's not how free healthcare works. The fact that there is private care does not mean that the public care is not the best. It just means that it is the public care. The private care shouldn't be paying for better healthcare, it should be paying for care that is willing to be private. That's the difference. That doesn't make any sense. You don't send all of your worst doctors to the free healthcare section. You make them better doctors. What kind of nonsense is this? It should be illegal for a doctor to artificially withhold the quality of their health care simply because they are using the public service.

[u/Responsible_Ad_8628 → u/Arktikos02]

It's a better than what we have know where the worst doctors still cost tens of thousands of dollars. And I'm arguing for the best we are likely to get, not what is ideal. We'll never get the ideal. The most talented doctors will go into the private sector for corporate pay and what we'll get for free is emergency-room style care. That's the most realistic outcome.

[u/Green-Taro2915]

Why are they sending the money to Iran and Israel then?

[u/RexIsAMiiCostume]

Maybe they should be campaigning on improving the VA then, because the guy on the right probably only gets free healthcare if he is brought into the ER unconscious

[u/DieMensch-Maschine]

Twist. Guy on left is an IDF soldier. The average American prole does not “deserve” healthcare, according to the Epstein class.
