(I did a fair amount of reading on the history of Social Security thanks to an argument I had with a guy who was defending Ayn Rand's collection of Social Security. I actually don't see it as the massive act of hypocrisy it's accused of being, but I did disagree with the amounts of money he assumed she'd paid into it.)
it's appalling how veterans have been treated since day one in this country.
from shay's rebellion back when Washington was still around, to ww1 and and the 'bonus' army, to now when the wait for benefits can take well over a year. it's a disgrace.
