Really, these men and woman who have been wounded in battle have to go to a nonprofit to get rehab and to get their artifical limbs? That is so not right. The
government sent them into battle and now it should take care of them when they're disabled. Blind, legless soldier>>>>>>Brianna Adkins.

Sadly, it takes a nonprofit to do what our government should be doing |

It truly is pathetic. Look at our military budget, it's skyrocketing but it's mostly getting spent on a new bomber or new battleship and 100 more of
them. It would probably cost, what, 100 million to do this for all our men and women serving this country? Maybe the cost of a few stealth bombers?

I guess it's a good thing that the Fallen Heros fund is around to take care of these people. I have a new found respect for Piers for supporting them.

If only the government would pour more money into healthcare. But with the campaigns this year heavily emphasizing healthcare, maybe that's where the focus
of our country will be in the next 4 years? err.. maybe.. I guess..

It's not being a commie to want to see our wounded vets taken care of. P.S. I am a registered Republician. So there.
