I think the most egregious aspect of this war supplemental submission is the fact that American veterans have been left out. Not only are deductibles being raised, not only are co-payments being insisted upon for prescription drugs, but that a substantial number of veterans are now so-called priority 8 veterans, which means that they make over $24,000 a year and are denied access to the veterans health care system. That is unconscionable.
