9. Imagine no more voc rehab for disabled vets

And amputees having to "pull themelves up by their bootstraps"--even though they have no boots.

The VA consistently ranks as good as, or better than, any health care system in the country. But the GOP chickenhawks are always pushing to destroy it by 'privatizing' it.

The G.I. Bill could easily be another one of their targets.

Fuck that, and fuck them. If they want to see pushback from vets, just let them TRY that shit. Even the old, traditional veterans service orgs that lean Right won't stand for that.
