It's like this.

I didn't ask to be put in this program.  As a matter of fact I've appealed
and begged and pleaded every way I can to not be in it.

However if I am in it, and I work full time, I will be charged with a
federal felony.  As though it is fraud.  Even though I'm telling them I
would rather work, would rather return to my permanent 70%.

It's a bull shit way of paying us 100% without having to pay all the
benefits.  If you're 100% permanent and total your kids get CHAMPUS health
care and additional benefits.  In TDIU you get nothing for family.  The 100%
permanent rating has all kinds of additional programs and benefits
associated with it.

It has nothing to do with funding, most agree more funding just makes it

gaming the wait time numbers. This agency needs to go away. It would cost a
fraction of the cost to put the Vets on regular insurance plans. But then

 The problems with the VA go back decades, and are mostly the result of
 wars that are started but not funded properly.  Congress provides the
 funding.  Look there for your villains.

@Eric:
Based on what he is saying, and the reading on the subject, there is some
category that the US Government PREVENTS someone from working.
So no, this isn't voluntary which kinda invalidates this opinion.

Based on some criteria, the US Government has determined that Tim, based on
his past, his skillset, his temperament and mental
state...whatever...should not be in the public working.
But because of his past service to his country, his country owes it to take
care of him, as perhaps that same country maybe responsible, at least
partly, for his current evaluation.

Now you can complain and beg to differ on the US Gov's analysis, but that
has nothing to do with the individual who has been placed in this bracket.

that said you will be charged with a crime for working...unless of course
you do not notify them that you are working.  Nothing at stated that you
cannot work and are forced to not work.  It only says that to qualify for
this you must not be able to work due to your disability.  If you are able

RE: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-06-02 Thread Eric Roberts

We often refer to Individual Unemployability as TDIU or IU.

The Individual Unemployability Benefit is equal in every way to a 100%
Schedular rating. The compensation is 100% and that dollar amount is equal
to both ratings. If the veteran is rated as 100% Schedular, he or she may
work at any job they are capable of doing. The veteran who is rated as IU
may not hold gainful employment.

The IU veteran is required to complete a yearly VA Form 21-4140 to verify
that there has been no employment in the previous year. Each Regional Office
seems to have its own way of delivering these forms, all too often they
don't deliver them at all. It is the veterans responsibility to ensure that
the 4140 is completed and mailed in on or about the anniversary of the award
each year.

The veteran should download the form, print it and mail it in using
certified mail, return receipt requested. Either the 100% Schedular rating
or the 100% IU rating may be rated as Permanent and Total (PT). Either
rating may be a temporary one with future examinations scheduled.

  AS for the VA scandal, its more of a problem of facilities and
access.
  Because of cuts and increased demands from 12 years of war 
  (courtesy of your hero G. W. Bush) and over promising they don't 
  have the space simply put.
  In
  the last 25 years the VA has built only one, that is ONE, new 
  care facility.
  Compare that to the number built by for profit health care companies.
  If the VA had the same level of investment the scheduling scandal 
  never would have happened. That said, its a systemic problem with 
  the VA system, brought on by years of increasing demands on the 
  system and trying to make increasingly fewer resources stretch to 
  cover more and more. And still surveys show that the majority of 
  vets are very satisfied with their VA care. Now imagine how well 
  the VA could have done if the system had the right funding.
  At times its seems that this country is all for getting its 
  soldiers wounded and messed up but isn't really concerned about
afterwards.
  After all what's a few vets in comparison to the shiny new hangar 
  queen
  F-35
  LIghtning II that costs $142.6 million a piece.

Just jumping in here with a link -
http://benefits.va.gov/BENEFITS/factsheets/serviceconnected/IU.PDF

According to that, Veterans who are in receipt of Individual
Unemployability benefits may work as long as it is not considered
substantially gainful employment. The employment must be considered
marginal employment.

Marginal employment is generally deemed to exist when a Veteran's earned
income does not exceed the amount established by the U.S. Census Bureau as
the poverty level for the Veteran only. For more information on the U.S.
Census Bureau's poverty thresholds, see
http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/poverty/data/threshld/index.html;

That said, I haven't found the penalty issue.

Until Later!

2014-06-02 Thread LRS Scout

I have a field manager.  He is a gs-13 named Kris Wolf.  He decides whether
I have to stay in the unemployability and fiduciary programs.  I've asked
to be removed for two years now.  Certified letters, followed the appeals
process.

I've had the atf and fbi in my home on multiple occasions.  I have an
official POC with the local fusion center, Det. Dickinson.  I have been
told these things on many occasions and if you read the .mil (government)
site, the individual comments will show you that it is the manner in which
it is handled.

It is the specific combination of programs, neither of which I requested,
and that I am not being permitted to leave, that causes the unique problems
I run into.

There are only 200,000 vets in the fiduciary program, less than that in
both of them.

You said I broke the law, but I haven't been convicted if anything.

When I start these conversations, even with veterans, I get the same exact
responses.

First they insist I must be a felon if I lost my guns, then it's all a
lie.  After that it's you're a druggie or you're so crazy you need to be
treated like this.  All of my rights outlined in the bill of rights gave
been violated but the third.  Second fourth and fifth and fourteenth
amendment villains are clear.  My property was violated and stolen without
a warrant.

Some of the laws in this sphere directly contradict each other.

People on this list helped me when there were literally federal agents and
local police trying to intimidate me into taking down my blog.

My previous field manager was fired after an OIG investigation found she
was abusing her power, not just with me but with multiple veterans.

Eric. I wrote some scathing shit to you in regards to the fraud and free
handout bull shit.

A few people reading this have pdf copies of all the documentation the VA
has sent me.

I've talked to senators and congressmen.

I'm not a liar, or a fake.

I had dual complimentary careers before a war stripped me of that.

If you test positive...you can be fired from your job...lose your CDL
license...all sorts of shit without a trial.  Don't be naive Tim...

Yes...there are federal laws against it.  It is what they are using to bust
people even though it is legal in the state.  They have been doing that with
medical MJ since the first states approved it.  Violations of federal, state
and local drug laws are all criminal actions...not civil actions.  You are
sadly (and unfortunately) mistaken.  If these were not criminal violations,
then why do we have so many people in jail for minor drug offenses?
Admitting to illegal drug use in the VA will get you into a lot of trouble.
I get tested regularly because I take Vicodin for chronic pain.  Ever since
then, they test me at least 4-5 times a year for other illegal substances.
And the VA, since they are a federal agency,  goes by what the fed says is
illegal...not the states.  I wish it were different.

Re: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-06-02 Thread LRS Scout

I don't have a job, as you've loved to point out.  I'm dealing with the
government, and they do not have the power to share my medical information
or use it against me.  This isn't a private interaction, it's not even a
voluntary interaction.

The federal crime comes with distribution and certain amounts of weight.
 There is no federal crime fore small scale personal possession unless you
are on federal property, and that would still require a conviction in a
court of law.  That is how they get the MMJ clubs and shops, distribution.

Most drug laws are like that, based on amount and value.  Use is not
illegal.  Small possession of some substances are illegal, and yes even
minor possession of pot is a criminal act in many states still.  It is not
in Ohio.  I do not distribute or buy large amounts.  I don't cross state
lines.

These are all the facts in the case and seem to be totally missing the
nature of the violations of anyone's individual rights.  Even if they think
I'm actually dangerous to myself and others the constitution requires in
several places that they prove that in a court of law.  Primarily the
Judicial Due Process is laid out in the 4th-8th amendments, and
incorporated and expanded upon in the 14th.

 Yes...there are federal laws against it.  It is what they are using to bust
 people even though it is legal in the state.  They have been doing that
 with

 Admitting to illegal drug use in the VA will get you into a lot of trouble.
 I get tested regularly because I take Vicodin for chronic pain.  Ever since

 And the VA, since they are a federal agency,  goes by what the fed says is
 illegal...not the states.  I wish it were different.

Re: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-06-02 Thread LRS Scout

Oh, and as for my refusal to be treated.

2 weeks ago I went into the patient advocate here.  We talked for a while
about my case and the way the doctor was treating me, and this was the
second or third time (enough that she remembered me) lodging the same exact
complaints.  My doctor refuses to treat me, will not send me to inpatient
as she has promised multiple times.  Lied in her record.  The Patient
Advocate then said she would put me in for a new doctor, and that I should
look for a letter in the mail within a week.

I recorded this conversation.

It is now two weeks later and I went in this morning, as I had not received
the expected letter.  She didn't even record that I was there.  No record
what so ever.  She's gone now as her husband found new employment.

http://fixtheva.vyndo.com/doc/va.wav

That's the recording.  She is a public servant in the operations of her
duties and has no expectation of privacy within that building anyway as it
says all over.

I found out today that I have a Disruptive Flag.  So I went to find out
what that meant.  If you have 2 or more interactions with the VA Police,
whether you're found to be in the wrong or not, your name must be submitted
to a local council of both medical staff and administrators.  I have had
precisely two interactions with the VA Police.  The first time was when I
was refused service several months ago, the lady at the desk called the
cops, he heard what was going on and took me to the patient advocate.  I
didn't threaten or curse or anything.  The other time I was going to an
inpatient program.  Not a lock down, and voluntarily.  I told them I will
not go if I cannot smoke cigarettes.  They put me in a mental health lock
down, in a room for 12 hours.  I finally said I signed in I'm signing out
and left against medical advice.  They called the VA Police to try to
restrain me, instead when the police showed up they told the staff that I
had to be let go.

I have a FOIA request I'm waiting to be filled for all VA police records
too.

 disagrees with your politics.  He's just using the pot charge as a

RE: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-06-02 Thread Eric Roberts

I think it is fucked up...especially with many states completely legalizing
it or at least legalizing medical MJ.  I am hoping that once IL gets it shit
together with the regs (we passed medical MJ earlier this year), I will have
private insurance so I can get a medical MJ card.  A few tokes of that is
worth a day and a half of vicoden...and much safer.  I am not saying I am
agreeing with it, but that is the current reality.  I would never ever admit
to them that I ever smoked it...even as a teen.

That still doesn't answer the question.

You totally haven't addressed what I just posted in regards to the
recording, and them not even scheduling me.

You haven't shown me anywhere in any document that gives them the power to
do this.

HIPPA should specifically prevent some of this, as should the patients
bill of rights and the privacy act probably.  There's all kinds of
applicable case law on how to find someone legally incompetent.  It happens
in a court of law.  In the open.  In front of a jury if that right isn't
waived.  The executive branch has now made it quasi legal as part of their
anti gun executive orders by increasing the reporting requirements past the
traditional limit of a danger to themselves or others.

2014-06-02 Thread LRS Scout

Well, lookie here:

http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/21cfr/21usc/844a.htm

SUBCHAPTER I — CONTROL AND ENFORCEMENTPart D — Offenses And Penalties 
§844a.
Civil penalty for possession of small amounts of certain controlled
substances

See where it says civil?

Do you understand the difference between civil and criminal?

If I am not even accused of a crime, how can a federal agent enter my home,
detain me, lay hands on me, rifle through my things, and steal some of my
belongs, some of which weren't even guns?  Without a search warrant.
 Without an arrest warrant.  Without a receipt for the items stolen?

 HIPPA should specifically prevent some of this, as should the patients
 bill of rights and the privacy act probably.  There's all kinds of
 applicable case law on how to find someone legally incompetent.  It happens
 in a court of law.  In the open.  In front of a jury if that right isn't
 waived.  The executive branch has now made it quasi legal as part of their
 anti gun executive orders by increasing the reporting requirements past the
 traditional limit of a danger to themselves or others.

OK, did some research this morning. I could not find any authority that states 
you will loose eligibility. I did find that if you are incarcerated, you will 
loose eligibility for the period of incarceration only...so you would regain 
eligibility on release. This suggests that the drug test alone will not be 
enough.

Now, if you are questioned by the VA about this, you may want to consider your 
words carefully and consider talking to a local attorney prior to admitting to 
any illegal drug use. It may be that any admissions you give to the VA could be 
used against you. There are rules that can protect your conversations with 
doctors...but these are a bit complex and its better to err on the side of 
caution, rather than to give a statement that could be used to prosecute you.


And, PRIOR to taking any action that would take away your benefits, the VA is 
required to give you notice and the opportunity to be heard on the matter. So 
if that happens, I would seek legal counsel.

Hope that helps

The VA can not incarcerate you. To be incarcerated you would need to be charged 
with a crime and taken to trial and convicted.

However, if you admit to the VA your use of illegal drugs, they could report 
this to law enforcement. For example, in AZ its a criminal offense to use many 
illegal drugs.

Here is the code in AZ for illegal use of marijuana.

13-3405. Possession, use, production, sale or transportation of marijuana; 
classification

A. A person shall not knowingly:

1. Possess or use marijuana.

2. Possess marijuana for sale.

3. Produce marijuana.

4. Transport for sale, import into this state or offer to transport for sale or 
import into this state, sell, transfer or offer to sell or transfer marijuana.

B. A person who violates:

1. Subsection A, paragraph 1 of this section involving an amount of marijuana 
not possessed for sale having a weight of less than two pounds is guilty of a 
class 6 felony.

There are similar laws for other illegal drugs.


So, its a good idea to not admit to use, or at least discuss with a local 
attorney prior to admitting to use.

The Oregon exchange is certainly an abject failure. It was a large failure
on the part of the vendor (Oracle) and on management that did a crappy job
of monitoring the vendor and auditing their work (the Oregon Health
Authority). Plenty of blame to go around with a doubt.

But how does one flawed implementation point to a problem with the law? You
say most failed. That is bullshit. Oregon's failed. And now we are moving
things along to piggy back on the national exchange. This is not the first
IT project that has ever failed, nor the largest.  We need to learn from it,
without a doubt, but a failure of the IT project does indicate that the law
behind it is a failure. As noted by others, plenty of exchanges have worked
very well.

IT projects fail. Demand accountability (high level people have been fired
and Oracle is getting sued), learn from mistakes, recover the best you can,
and move forward.

Re: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-06-01 Thread LRS Scout

Only eight of those years are thanks to Bush.

If you don't want the job don't apply for it.  We're pretty deep into the
second term to still be blaming the last guy.

You are taking out your ass about the VA.

While the health care issues are regional, due to the way the VA is
organized, the problems on the benefits (VBA) side are equally insane, with
huge backlogs and major civil rights violations all over.

The surveys themselves are conducted internally, I have no faith in them
what so ever, this organization is riddled with inefficiency and corruption.

The rules are totally different for us, forever.  Your HIPPA protections
don't exist for us.  Our 4th and 5th amendment rights basically don't
exist, our private medical information, including therapy notes and shit,
is freely shared with federal law enforcement, without a warrant.  My
property has been stolen, without a warrant, my home searched, with out a
warrant.

I've been detained multiple times.  Local officers have lied to my
neighbors and told them I have warrants, but I haven't even been accused of
a crime.

I'm prohibited by law from maintaining gainful employment because I'm too
nutty to work, bit I'm denied ssdi based off doctors records that I smoke
pot.  So I don't get half of what I'm supposed to, and now in even being
refused medical care for staph and MRSA because my doctor screwed up my
meds and appointments, and lied in my record to cover her mistake.

It takes an average of 45-60 to see your primary care doctor here, longer
to get to a specialist, but you can't be scrolled for the specialist
without a referral from primary care, so you're looking at a four month
minimum wait to see a specialist.

Something a lot of outsiders miss is that the VA is scaled.  The vast
majority of people who have earned it don't use it, even those who do use
it mainly use it as part of their health care, and aren't rated and
disabled at all.

The real problems in the system begin when you are rated at 30% and they
start becoming involved in every aspect of your life.

The clinics are well funded, the medical staff is mainly top notch, with
the exception of the many foreign doctors, who often do not have the
empathy and cultural awareness this situation requires, and lack a respect
for the special nature if their customer base.  The main problem on the
health care side is in administrators.

The VA is the epitome of a federal bureaucracy run amok.  The
administrators are bitter, entitled, king term government employees who
know how hard it is to get fired.  It often seems add though there job is
denial of services, and it is.  This is an attitude that was fostered after
Vietnam die to large scale fraud by veterans and liars that has since been
stamped out.  Now it serves to save them money.

Many veterans refuse to use VA health care it other benefits due to the
Times and difficulties involved, and the impacts on the individual.  For
many years it's seemed like this has been a coordinated effort.

Christ the evil deranged domestic terrorist combat veteran is now a media
talking point, even if a statistical anomaly.

Re: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-06-01 Thread Larry C. Lyons

my bad I didn't read enough I did mention Shrubbery.

That said, think of it genius, what happens when

1) your guys are shot at more don't a few get hit?
2) with more people getting wounded don't you think that would result
in greater demands on the system Just a wild guess on my part however.
3) Facing IED's and similar forms of attack, that means more leg and
arm injuries. Also the pressure wave does a number on the brain - As
someone a bit familiar with neuroanatomy I think I can guess the
effect of a blast wave on the brain would not be good. Ergo increased
use.
4) Congress has widened coverage eligibility quite a lot in the last
10 years for VA care. Don't you think that would increase demand.
5) The VA has opened only ONE new hospital in the last 25 years.

So yes there has been a massive demand on the VA medical system much
due to George W. Bush's wars. And your republican party has blocked
increases in VA funding multiple times over the last 5 years. So if
anything the blame is on the Republicans.

 The Oregon exchange is certainly an abject failure. It was a large failure
 on the part of the vendor (Oracle) and on management that did a crappy job
 of monitoring the vendor and auditing their work (the Oregon Health
 Authority). Plenty of blame to go around with a doubt.

 But how does one flawed implementation point to a problem with the law? You
 say most failed. That is bullshit. Oregon's failed. And now we are moving
 things along to piggy back on the national exchange. This is not the first
 IT project that has ever failed, nor the largest.  We need to learn from it,
 without a doubt, but a failure of the IT project does indicate that the law
 behind it is a failure. As noted by others, plenty of exchanges have worked
 very well.

 IT projects fail. Demand accountability (high level people have been fired
 and Oracle is getting sued), learn from mistakes, recover the best you can,
 and move forward.

The VA has existed longer than 25 years and had Eisenhower style properties

They've chosen to only build one hospital, but have built tons of
versatility clinics all over so they don't have to let you get private
health care, because there is a mileage limit.

The blame is on everyone, but mainly the God damned institution and the
government service slugs who populate its hallways.  The insane regulatory

2014-06-01 Thread Eric Roberts

Bullshit Tim.  You have only been experiencing the VA for a couple of years.
I first started going to the VA when Clinton was in office.  I saw firsthand
how it nosedived from day one of the Bush Administration and it fell
deep...much like our economy fell deep thanks to him.  Not only did Bush
rape the funding for the VA, which would have caused some problems on their
own, with the introduction of 2 wars, he also exponentially increased the
number of people relying on the VA for services.  Add to that the rape of
the economy which added even more burden to the VA, I am surprised we get as
good of a service as we do out of the VA.  Quit whining that you are getting
denied shit because you broke the law.  While I disagree with pot being
illegal...if you want to break the law and use it anyway, then that is on
you and you alone.  Take responsibility for your own actions.  You are not
prohibited by law from maintaining gainful employment.  You will lose some
of the free benefits if you reach a certain income level.  You are not being
denied shit.  I am also going to call bullshit on being denied medical care.
You cannot be refused medical care.  That is illegal.  All veterans are
eligible for care at the VA...you do not have to be rated or disabled.  The
scale it based on whether or not you are disabled and sevice connected and
if not, then it is based on income on what you have to pay as far as copays
for visits and prescriptions.

Only eight of those years are thanks to Bush.

If you don't want the job don't apply for it.  We're pretty deep into the
second term to still be blaming the last guy.

You are taking out your ass about the VA.

While the health care issues are regional, due to the way the VA is
organized, the problems on the benefits (VBA) side are equally insane, with
huge backlogs and major civil rights violations all over.

The surveys themselves are conducted internally, I have no faith in them
what so ever, this organization is riddled with inefficiency and corruption.

The rules are totally different for us, forever.  Your HIPPA protections
don't exist for us.  Our 4th and 5th amendment rights basically don't exist,
our private medical information, including therapy notes and shit, is freely
shared with federal law enforcement, without a warrant.  My property has
been stolen, without a warrant, my home searched, with out a warrant.

I've been detained multiple times.  Local officers have lied to my neighbors
and told them I have warrants, but I haven't even been accused of a crime.

I'm prohibited by law from maintaining gainful employment because I'm too
nutty to work, bit I'm denied ssdi based off doctors records that I smoke
pot.  So I don't get half of what I'm supposed to, and now in even being
refused medical care for staph and MRSA because my doctor screwed up my meds

It takes an average of 45-60 to see your primary care doctor here, longer to
get to a specialist, but you can't be scrolled for the specialist without a
referral from primary care, so you're looking at a four month minimum wait
to see a specialist.

Something a lot of outsiders miss is that the VA is scaled.  The vast
majority of people who have earned it don't use it, even those who do use it
mainly use it as part of their health care, and aren't rated and disabled at

The real problems in the system begin when you are rated at 30% and they
start becoming involved in every aspect of your life.

The clinics are well funded, the medical staff is mainly top notch, with the
exception of the many foreign doctors, who often do not have the empathy and
cultural awareness this situation requires, and lack a respect for the
special nature if their customer base.  The main problem on the health care
side is in administrators.

The VA is the epitome of a federal bureaucracy run amok.  The administrators
are bitter, entitled, king term government employees who know how hard it is
to get fired.  It often seems add though there job is denial of services,

Many veterans refuse to use VA health care it other benefits due to the

 The Oregon exchange is certainly an abject failure. It was a large 
 failure on the part of the vendor (Oracle) and on management that did 
 a crappy job of monitoring the vendor and auditing their work (the 
 Oregon Health Authority). Plenty of blame to go around with a doubt.

 law? You say most failed. That is bullshit. Oregon's failed. And now 
 we are moving things along to piggy back on the national exchange. 
 This is not the first IT project that has ever failed, nor the

 the IT project does indicate that the law behind it is a failure. As

 AS for the VA scandal, its more of a problem of facilities and access.
 Because of cuts and increased demands from 12 years of war (courtesy 
 of your hero G. W. Bush) and over promising they don't have the space 
 simply put.
 In
 the last 25 years the VA has built only one, that is ONE, new care 
 facility.
 Compare that to the number built by for profit health care companies. 
 If the VA had the same level of investment the scheduling scandal 
 never would have happened. That said, its a systemic problem with the 
 VA system, brought on by years of increasing demands on the system and 
 trying to make increasingly fewer resources stretch to cover more and 
 more. And still surveys show that the majority of vets are very 
 satisfied with their VA care. Now imagine how well the VA could have 
 done if the system had the right funding.
 At times its seems that this country is all for getting its soldiers 
 wounded and messed up but isn't really concerned about afterwards.
 After all what's a few vets in comparison to the shiny new hangar 
 queen
 F-35
 LIghtning II that costs $142.6 million a piece.

 You cannot be refused medical care.  That is illegal.  All veterans are

 Only eight of those years are thanks to Bush.

 If you don't want the job don't apply for it.  We're pretty deep into the
 second term to still be blaming the last guy.

 You are taking out your ass about the VA.

 While the health care issues are regional, due to the way the VA is
 organized, the problems on the benefits (VBA) side are equally insane, with
 huge backlogs and major civil rights violations all over.

 The surveys themselves are conducted internally, I have no faith in them
 what so ever, this organization is riddled with inefficiency and
 corruption.

 The rules are totally different for us, forever.  Your HIPPA protections
 don't exist for us.  Our 4th and 5th amendment rights basically don't
 exist,
 our private medical information, including therapy notes and shit, is
 freely
 shared with federal law enforcement, without a warrant.  My property has
 been stolen, without a warrant, my home searched, with out a warrant.

 I've been detained multiple times.  Local officers have lied to my
 neighbors
 and told them I have warrants, but I haven't even been accused of a crime.

 I'm prohibited by law from maintaining gainful employment because I'm too
 nutty to work, bit I'm denied ssdi based off doctors records that I smoke
 pot.  So I don't get half of what I'm supposed to, and now in even being
 refused medical care for staph and MRSA because my doctor screwed up my
 meds
 and appointments, and lied in my record to cover her mistake.

 It takes an average of 45-60 to see your primary care doctor here, longer
 to
 get to a specialist, but you can't be scrolled for the specialist without a
 referral from primary care, so you're looking at a four month minimum wait
 to see a specialist.

 Something a lot of outsiders miss is that the VA is scaled.  The vast
 majority of people who have earned it don't use it, even those who do use
 it
 mainly use it as part of their health care, and aren't rated and disabled
 at
 all.

 The real problems in the system begin when you are rated at 30% and they
 start becoming involved in every aspect of your life.

 The clinics are well funded, the medical staff is mainly top notch, with
 the
 exception of the many foreign doctors, who often do not have the empathy
 and
 cultural awareness this situation requires, and lack a respect for the
 special nature if their customer base.  The main problem on the health care
 side is in administrators.

 The VA is the epitome of a federal bureaucracy run amok.  The
 administrators
 are bitter, entitled, king term government employees who know how hard it
 is
 to get fired.  It often seems add though there job is denial of services,
 and it is.  This is an attitude that was fostered after Vietnam die to
 large
 scale fraud by veterans and liars that has since been stamped out.  Now it

As for denial of medical care, think what you want, I've been escorted off
site more than once by VA police.  This layers time the doctor told me she
would not see me after I asked why she didn't give me refills of my required
antibiotics.  I've already dealt with the patient advocate and the office of
the inspector General.

It is still a federal offense.  Just because they give you a ticket instead

You forget I enlisted and got out under Clinton too.

Pot in Ohio has been decriminalized, it's an infraction, not a crime.  As

As we discussed in another conversation, placing blame gets nothing done.

However, if blame is going to be placed, time doesn't matter.  It
should be laid at the feet of those who are responsible.

The problems with the VA go back decades, and are mostly the result of
wars that are started but not funded properly.  Congress provides the
funding.  Look there for your villains.

It doesn't help that the current President likes to be seen and heard as

Only Washington state and Colorado have recreational pot
legalized...everywhere else, it is still a criminal act.  States that have
medical marijuana laws require that you have a card for it.  If you do not
have that and do not live in a state that has legalized medical
marijuana...it is still a crime.  Not an infraction.  Many states have
reduced the penalty to a fine and made it a ticket-able offence rather than
dragging you to prison off the bat...that doesn't mean that it is not a
crime still.  While I disagree with it being a crime anywhere...as long as
it is, you have to play by the rules or be prepared to pay the piper.  Don't
blame someone else for actions you took knowing full well that it was
against the law.  No one forced tyou to smoke.

 I'm not, use is not illegal, so you tell me, what the fuck did I do wrong?

 You forget I enlisted and got out under Clinton too.

 Pot in Ohio has been decriminalized, it's an infraction, not a crime.  
 As I'm not going across state borders the federal government should

Is that what you and your fellow conservatives whine about with welfare
recipients?  Apparently you are getting 100% disability even though you are
not 100% rated, according to everything you have posted...so you are getting
extra money that was not directly earned via the service connected
disability you do have.  How is that any different from someone collecting
welfare money?  They can work too right?  Then they wouldn't need the full
disability...right?  So if you are able to work, they why are you claiming
you are a 100% disabled?  Sorry if I have little sympathy for that.  You
can't have that both ways.

 wars that are started but not funded properly.  Congress provides the
 funding.  Look there for your villains.

It's like this.

I didn't ask to be put in this program.  As a matter of fact I've appealed
and begged and pleaded every way I can to not be in it.

However if I am in it, and I work full time, I will be charged with a
federal felony.  As though it is fraud.  Even though I'm telling them I
would rather work, would rather return to my permanent 70%.

It's a bull shit way of paying us 100% without having to pay all the
benefits.  If you're 100% permanent and total your kids get CHAMPUS health
care and additional benefits.  In TDIU you get nothing for family.  The
100% permanent rating has all kinds of additional programs and benefits
associated with it.

  Bush
rape the funding for the VA, which would have caused some problems on

   some
of the free benefits if you reach a certain income level.  You are

You cannot be refused medical care.  That is illegal.  All veterans
 are
eligible for care at the VA...you do not have to be rated or

The

if not, then it is based on income on what you have to pay as far as
   copays

2014-05-31 Thread Larry C. Lyons

AS for the VA scandal, its more of a problem of facilities and access.
Because of cuts and increased demands from 12 years of war (courtesy
of your hero G. W. Bush) and over promising they don't have the space
simply put. In the last 25 years the VA has built only one, that is
ONE, new care facility. Compare that to the number built by for profit
health care companies. If the VA had the same level of investment the
scheduling scandal never would have happened. That said, its a
systemic problem with the VA system, brought on by years of increasing
demands on the system and trying to make increasingly fewer resources
stretch to cover more and more. And still surveys show that the
majority of vets are very satisfied with their VA care. Now imagine
how well the VA could have done if the system had the right funding.
At times its seems that this country is all for getting its soldiers
wounded and messed up but isn't really concerned about afterwards.
After all what's a few vets in comparison to the shiny new hangar
queen F-35 LIghtning II that costs $142.6 million a piece.

Re: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-05-31 Thread Judah McAuley

The Oregon exchange is certainly an abject failure. It was a large failure
on the part of the vendor (Oracle) and on management that did a crappy job
of monitoring the vendor and auditing their work (the Oregon Health
Authority). Plenty of blame to go around with a doubt.

But how does one flawed implementation point to a problem with the law? You
say most failed. That is bullshit. Oregon's failed. And now we are moving
things along to piggy back on the national exchange. This is not the first
IT project that has ever failed, nor the largest.  We need to learn from
it, without a doubt, but a failure of the IT project does indicate that the
law behind it is a failure. As noted by others, plenty of exchanges have
worked very well.

IT projects fail. Demand accountability (high level people have been fired
and Oracle is getting sued), learn from mistakes, recover the best you can,
and move forward.

  Just look at the VA scandal if you want to know what Obamacare will look

  Didn't we just waste around $1 billion dollars trying to get the
 exchanges
  working and most failed. How's Oregon doing with their exchange?

Re: So this is why the GOP is backing off healthcare reform as a platform...

2014-05-30 Thread C. Hatton Humphrey

For the majority of the law, the full impact won't be seen until the law is
fully implemented for both employee  employer.  The fact that HHS has not
implemented the employer mandate says more to me than anecdotal reports.

There are other portions of this law that don't bode as well as the impact
to who's paying.  Some of them are temporary and others have more
long-lasting effects.


Until Later!

Every cloud does have a silver lining.  Sometimes you just have to do some
smelting to find it.

 doctors.A batch of anecdotal reports suggests that hospitals' uncompensated

 many doctors are upset about the law's added complexity -- they're
 generally happy with the pay that they're seeing through the ACA's new
