During Trump’s first term he talked about using a voucher system for veterans’medical care. Instead of forcing all veterans to use the horrendously bureaucratic and slow Veterans Administration hospitals where untold numbers of veterans have died waiting for proper medical care, just like all socialist hospitals, Trump said that the government will pay the medical bills, and veterans can choose any doctor or hospital they want, including Veterans Administration doctors and hospitals.
It turns out that that was Pete Hegseth’s recommendation to Trump when he served as an unofficial advisor on veterans’ affairs. So today the headlines are screaming that “Hegseth Plans to Cut Veterans Benefits.”
In reality the Trump system would be more beneficial to veterans, which of course is why everyone should call them the “lying media scum.” The LMS dishonestly define “veterans benefits” solely in terms of the size of the budget for the Veterans Administration bureaucracy. The bureaucrats are worried that their crappy socialist system will not compete very well and their budget would shrink or at least not grow as fast as they would like. Too bad.
