Veterans die waiting as Phoenix VA Hospital builds new backlog list-
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/4/phoenix-va-builds-new-backlog-200-veterans-die-wai/
“The Phoenix Veterans Affairs office is still improperly canceling veterans’ appointments, has built up a new backlog of cases — and at least one veteran is likely dead because of it, the department’s inspector general said in a new report Tuesday.”
Has anyone been fired?Have any real changes been made?
Ya,I thought so 
The VA gives Socialized Medicine a bad name, as my buddies from Canada always tell me, while they are down here for an MRI they would have to wait several years for just a couple of hundred miles north of Seattle….”Yes sir, said Roy from Vancouver – a few years ago when I was in a bad traffic accident – and got rushed right to the nearest ER, the medics gave me an aspirin to stop the bleeding. Of course, that just made the bleeding worse because thins the blood, so my wife drove me down south here in her car for an American hospital, where they sewed me back together again – and asked who was the idiot who gave me aspirin to stop the bleeding. I explained Canadian Socialized Medicine to the doctor, who nodded his head and said that it sounded just like the VA here in the States.”
He’s a Bureaucrat Democrat and above peon things like jail….In fact, he gets promoted.
Our entire medical system via oBowacare will soon be equal or worse to the VA. Nothing was wrong with our health care before the left totally fucked it. The VA is your typical 9-5 job, the small problem being humans employed there taking initiative to serve their clients. Health care is a 24/7 private sector job.
My personal experience with the VA will be remembered on October 19, the 7th year since my Marine son killed himself. A 410 shotgun between his eyes to relieve his terror. Forever 23. Semper fidelis my good man. See you again one fine day!
Make America Great Again. Damn. At least get a foot in the rapidly slamming door.
Sorry to hear of your loss,so few,so precious few answer the call and we allow our idiot government to fail them at every turn.It’s a black stain on the soul of our country.
This rape of resources has been going on for a long time. For the last three decades there has been such scandalous larceny to further boggle already emboggled minds. This is the end game, I said at the time, when everyone who knows something steals something. This business with the VA would have passed well below my radar, but for CR. It serves to prove that we are in the middle of the endgame. May God help us all.
Yes,things are winding down and speeding up at the same time.

Says it all.
Bottom Line: VA CANNOT be fixed because it is SOCIALIZED MEDICINE.
These varieties of the single payer medicine do not provide a good service because of their culture of bureaucracy and corruption. Political leaders come and go along with their plans of reform and NOTHING changes.
SOLUTION? Kill the beast. Then adopt a free market approach that pays the costs for those who can’t afford private health care policies.
It’s a simple fix,every Vet in the system has a VA id card,simply make that card valid anywhere,full ride on uncle’s dime.
Then you can get the care of your choice.Let old fashioned compitition add some chlorine to the pool.Also let’s let the vets decide which administrator says and which goes.A simple ballot vote by region would handle that the same way a board of directors is chosen by shareholders in a corporation.
So much corruption, so little time before the election…
