Raising Health Care for Vets

~~~~~ Health Care for Vets ~~~~~

                               

     I believe that the cost of health care for military veterans should not be increased by a big percentage or the increase should be well though of. These people risks their life to fight for a country only to return and be jobless and sometimes unable to work due to their disabilities. However, the country is in debt and considering the feelings of each person in the country will not help the nation decrease its deficit. I believe that the veterans who have been paying the $230 a year should not be affected by this reform. The veterans who are now beginning to apply to receive the veterans health care should face the increase. The families who have became accustomed to paying $230 should not have to adjust their budgets to pay the increase. The people who have never paid the fee should be the ones who face the increase. I also believe that if the government does increase the health care cost for veterans, they should create stipulations which protect some of the veterans. The veterans who are to old to work or who are disabled and unable to get a job should be protected from facing the price increase. If the veterans should face an increase I feel that their should be different amounts in which it is increased based on age and whether or not the veteran is disabled or physiologically ill. The veterans who lost the most by fighting for our country should not have to continue to suffer. The ones who are able to continue with their everyday lives should pay the increase and help to lower the country's deficit.
