Biden and Congress has done quite a bit for veterans.What destroys that effort is how the claims are settled without a basis in fairness, and how diplomats and intelligence officers are given large paydays while veterans get very little for disabilities earned in service. Veterans can file a claim for burn pit damage, but it can take months, even years for adjudication. The fairness of the process becomes central when people who rank higher get aid and help faster than the average soldier, and are not required to prove their injuries.
