Try telling that to my dad. He is 61, a disabled vet on SSID (which places him
below the poverty line for income) with two bad hips and two bad knees.
All his medical care, which is not much since they have denied him operations to fix his hips and knees so he can go back to work (yes his still wants to work at 61!) is curiosity of the VA (he has never used his medicaid/care).
As for cutting the military he has ideas on how to cut it to zero...
