Keep the VA out of the hands of the 3%. Privatization is nothing more than a scam.
Quoting: CountryPumpkin 1) Clearly the SCAM is government operating the VA. How VA hospitals are a government-run disaster [ link to nypost.com] 2) Clearly again, since the SS fund is full of IOU's and no longer exists as a fund....the GOVERNMENT scammed us again. The Truth about How Bankrupt the Social Security System Is [ link to www.economicpolicyjournal.com] Quoting: Useless Cookie Eater ED ...because clearly you live in an alternate reality much different the rest of us. Quoting: Useless Cookie Eater The privatization scam: Five government outsourcing horror storiesFor decades we’ve been subjected to constant propaganda that government is inefficient, bureaucratic and expensive. We’re told that the answer is to “privatize,” or “outsource” government functions to private businesses and they will do things more efficiently and everyone comes out ahead. As a result we have experienced decades of privatization of government functions. So how has this wave of privatization worked out? Has privatization saved taxpayers money and improved services to citizens? Simple answer: of course not. If a company can make a profit doing something the government had been doing, it means that we’re losing out one way or another. It’s simple math. And the result of falling for the privatization scam is that taxpayers have been fleeced, services to citizens have been cut way back and communities have been made poorer. But the companies that convinced governments to hand over public functions have gotten rich off of the deal. How is this a surprise? Here are five privatization horror stories, where government outsourcing has gone terribly wrong. (Or maybe you’d say it has gone terribly right if you are one of the companies getting the taxpayer dollars.) [ link to www.nationofchange.org] Quoting: CountryPumpkin Pure Socialist propaganda (....from a Soros funded Socialist source of course too) AND....... Private failures don't cost TAXPAYER MONEY.Cough cough.....Solyndra...Fisker....Obamacare.....on and on...ad nauseum to the tune of BILLIONS upon BILLIONS over Obama's term alone.
