I saw the 3 hr video on the BVM yesterday and even put it in my favorites and now gone cannot find it anywhere, even on VA watchdog were I first saw it gone. ????????????????

I watched it on c-span with my computer. Alot of tuff talk while we see nothing being done.They say we need more Doctors, facilities,rooms,accountability but wasn't it Always Been Like That. That's why we're at this the breaking point

Giving more money to the VA is like handing out coupons to pay $100 for a $5 hamburger - it just ain't gonna help.

It needs to be shut down and vets sent to civilian docs.

The problem I see with that is, how many civilian docs will be willing to participate since the payments will likely be a nightmare for them.

I agree with Notorious Kelly. Shut down the VA healthcare system and let veterans go to civilian medical providers of their choice. All of my civilian medical providers accept medicare. If most civilian medical providers accept medicare, they will accept VA payments. The government could just place veterans under medicare with copay requirements like those under the VA's current system. JMO.
