It makes me sad then mad and it's not an exclusive US problem. We have a lot of our military men and women coming home broken and we are just not taking the proper care of them. Canada is suppose to be a social democratic society and we use to have programs to look after people in need, including our vets.
It is a political issue for us as we have a Conservative government who is more concerned about giving tax breaks to corporations then looking after our own citizens and making sure they are OK. Military, mental health, disabled or whatever their issue is diserves to be looked after in a civilized world. We can make a difference not just by donation and volunteering but by voting and making sure our politicians know what it is we want and hold them accountable.
And, thanks to all who serve so that I have the freedom to rant and rave as I please.
