HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted September 28, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted September 28, 2010 I received that e-mail at work today with the PDF and did some quick math. 3 Million Veterans X ~$1,000 per month increase X 12 months is 36 TRILLION dollars they would have to raise the DVA budget by. Don't think this is going to happen. As many other posters have said I think this was just congresses way of tying the COLA for the VA to the COLA of SSA so they do not have to do a new bill each year unless they want to make a bigger change than the SSA increase. D/ Your math is wrong. The VA only spends about 90 Billion on everything right now. You would be very surprised to earn how few veterans are 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
