    It’s much higher than you realize. VA budget is roughly 180b, and that won’t be cut. Instead it will all be privatized.

    So now the burden is on the private healthcare to treat veteran specific issues, and they won’t.

    There are also hundreds of thousands of vets who depend on the compensation payments. Now you have hundreds of thousands of additional homeless people across the country. They are now a burden on society.

    The 180b? All going into the coffers of Federalist society allies and big businesses. That is a lot of money removed from the economy. It will ripple worse than any factory shuttering. This one is going to cause massive devastation so some rich fucks can buy a new yacht and be oligarchs.
