Yeah, but the treatment some American veterans receive is hardly the best. Just look at the example of how College administrations view brain-damaged veterans as just an easy source of money.

Ok Ok, This is the second time you mentioned this. I am sure there is some conspiracy theory you would like to share with us.

Go ahead.

My conspiracy theory is that some people are dicks.

That's it.

In other words, I don't have a conspiracy theory. I honestly can't see why you think I do.

And I'm supporting your point anyway

BTW, here's an article explaining the sort of thing that happens: http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/carrie-wofford/2013/11/11/this-veterans-day-help-a-vet-avoid-a-gi-bill-for-profit-college-scam


Again, I'm not saying that this is some malevolent plan by conspirators, I'm just saying that some people are dicks. And the reasons I keep mentioning this are: a) it's pertinent to the current discussion (or at least I think it is), and b) I'm furious about it, and when I'm furious I get obsessed.
