Congress has “still another meeting” to “fix” VA mistakes and delays.
So, how does the VA fix its mistakes?
A few times in my life I have “called” my wife (or kids) and asked them to do me a favor. When they inquire as to “What is the favor?” I respond, “I have a twenty dollar bill that I did not have time to spend. Could you try to find the time to spend it for me?”
They dont seem to mind spending it. I have noticed it is always easier to spend others money than to spend your own. Case in point is the VA claim delays and mistakes. Who pays for these claim delays and mistakes? Well, Veterans do, of course. We loose our homes to forclosure. We become homeless. We are forced to forgo necessities even for our children because we simply have not received our compensation from the VA.
So, how then should we “fix” claim delays and mistakes? As long as “somebody else” pays (the Veteran) they will continue. If those mistakes came out of the VA supervisors’ bonuses, watch them stop pronto.

Veterans Claims Help 
It is apparent to me now that a majority of Veterans are abused en masse in the current VA system. Political action is really the only recourse. That means that more veterans should run for public office and try to stay clean if elected.
Army Cadet Honor Code
“A cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”
Is it realistic to think that elected officials can adhere to the above moral code when placed in positions of power and temptation? Must they lie, cheat, steal, and tolerate those who do so in order to stay in power and get a few good things done for the little folks back home?
