One example is the vets. Everybody seems to believe they should be better cared for, yet legislation designed to help them is few and far between, and then it has to actually pass.

Who is responsible for deciding what issues are brought up for discussion?

Who says they are NOT Being cared for ?

"Vets" plays well with voters on both sides . One needs to ask if this is even a real issue , or just a political point getter .
