Another Veterans administration Medical Center scandal

Surprise , surprise another scandal at a VA Medical Center. This time in Phoenix where several vets were allowed to die before they received treatment for their bladder and kidney cancers. There are 152 VA hospitals and medical centers and 1,700 VA hospitals and clinics in the United States. Around 9 million veterans use the VA medical system. The VA budget is around 132 billion. The VA medical system began in 1924. I expect the politicians wanted to do something special for the men and women who served our country so they gave them their very own medical system. To prove the point once again, the road to heaven is paved with good intentions that somehow go amiss. What we have 84 years later is a gigantic government bureaucracy corrupt and incompetent from top to bottom. What can be done to right this floundering ship of state. As with most of the social ills in this country, the inherent flaws in the VA can be corrected relatively easily and cost effectively just by applying a little common sense. We should not try to "fix" the broken medical system that is the VA; rather we should just abolish the VA Hospitals and clinics, every last one of them! In the first place, it makes no sense whatsoever to have a separate system of medical care for veterans, none at all. This is especially true, if the medical care provided our vets is inferior to the standard medical care provided to all other members of our society. Veterans who serve our country should be provided, free of charge, Medicare A and Medicare B. It's as simple as that! This is a win-win solution for everyone. The vets get the same medical as everyone else, at no cost, and the tax payers save billions of dollars each year, probably tens of billions. There, what was so hard about that?
