Veterans' Administration Not Paying Claims, Driving Veterans Into Bankruptcy and Homelessness

[gehayi]

Due to a backlog in processing thousands of disability claims, military members and their families are forced to live on the streets because of foreclosures and are heading into bankruptcy courts at an alarming rate.This is so wrong I don't even have words for it. And the VA isn't going to do fuck-all to stop it because right now, they're PROFITING

What the FUCK?!

[gehayi]

I KNOW.

Isn't this what the Veterans' Administration exists to PREVENT?

...I can't tell if I'm being mocked right now...

[gehayi]

*puzzled* No, I'm not mocking you. Why would I be mocking you?

Just imagine my saying my previous comment in an angry and incredibly frustrated voice.

Haah, sorry. I had to terminate two of my cooks today at work for getting into a fistfight on the line. It's been...stressful. I've still kind of got my guard up for something else to happen. I'm sorry if the tiny bit of venom I put into that post made it through to you, I really need to pour myself a glass of Woodford Reserve and relax...jeez...jumping at shadows. :P

And for a more serious reply, yeah, this is obscene what those people are doing to vets. I hope the knowledge of this becomes the new big thing, that a ton of people suddenly find themselves righteously furious, and that a nice big hammer comes down on the heads of whichever higher-ups are making these calls.
