If Trump Is REALLY Interested In Combating Fraud, Then He Needs To Go After The Thousands Of Veterans Who Are Filing Fraudulent Claims With The VA

I understand that, but COLA increases your retirement pay. It's over two grand a month for E-7s now.

.

haven't received retired pay since 1999 I get paid by the VA, not being a combat vet I can't collect retired pay if the VA pays more.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Ah. That's a different ball game. You are receiving a VA pension then, yes?

didn't get Va until rated at 70 percent by VA start of 2000. They ruled I was unemployable so paid at the 100 percent rate.

 

[g5000]

That doesn't sound right. And retirees do get 50 percent nowadays....more than that if they served over 20 years.

No, retirees do not get 50 percent nowadays. That is false.

The amount has been steadily dropping for decades.

Since 2018, the pension is a blend of a 401k-style plan and a smaller percentage of your base pay. So you are basically funding a significant part of your own retirement.

So you are receiving disability. That is different than retirement pay.

if I were a combat vet I would also get retired paid that changed sometime in the 2000's

Wrong again, simp. Trump is just randomly cutting thousands of jobs at the VA....he is not addressing this problem.



If Trump was truly interested in reducing fraud, then he would increase the number of VA investigators so that more of this fraud can be uncovered. That would actually save mo



Maybe even you are smart enough to understand that....but probably

Dude.

Trump has been president for less than ten months.

The autopen administration left him a huge mess to clean up with those millions of illegals.They granted "legal status" two millions of illegal border crossers, and then allowed them pull access to the healthcare benefits paid for by american citizens.

Trump was busy making sure the one big, beautiful bill got passed to end that legalized fraud once and for all.

Now the cry baby democrats are throwing a tantrum, which can only distract trump. further. Once he decides, that he has met his own priorities, and those of his voters, he can take a look at yours.

As we should constantly say to those wanting to immigrate: wait your f****** turn!

If you entered the military before a certain year, you get to choose which retirement option. I entered the military in 2000 and I retired using the old system, without the 401K-style blended retirement option.

 

[Dr. Phosphorous]

Dude.

Trump has been president for less than ten months.

He is not going to do anything about it and we both know it. Trump honestly doesn't give a flying **** about corruption because he is corrupt.

Stop pretending.

Hussein Obama decreed that a Military Veteran could file for disability for PTSD without ever having been in combat.

Although I do know that happens please pick out from this document that anyone without serving in combat can file for disability for PTSD. I don't see it but could have missed it.

There is a paragraph in this document that seems to be a lie and that is Veterans and their families can have ACA. Well, if a vet is signed up for VA health care they cannot get a plan with a subsidy and would have to pay full price. Now, their spouse can.

LMAO Dems have finally come up with a winning strategy, attack veterans and wounded warriors. Let us know how that works out Dems.

Wow, just when you think Democrats haven't dug their hole deep enough, they go get an excavator.

Wow, just when you think Democrats haven't dug their hole deep enough, they go get an excavator.

You need to sit this one out, MAGA simp. You simply ain't smart enough to have a real discussion about government corruption.
