Veterans' Affairs Intro

*Please subscribe and spread the word*

This documentary is about veterans and the various issues that they face when they return from the war. The documentary will focus on the problems that veterans endure when they return from one war only to face a war with bureaucracy. The homeless epidemic among veterans is at a all time high. More than 2/3rd of the people that are homeless are veterans. We lose more veterans a week to suicide than we do in the war.

Veteran's Affairs is a film about facts, no political posturing and surprisingly not a war film. This will give you a better idea of what it means to truly support a military member.

this video is stupid. i served in iraq and the va did nothing but help me. i work for the va and we are helping tons and tons of vets. you have to claim for something you have and cant make it up. the va is getting better and better everyday.

Hence the point that we will be pointing out the good, bad and ugly. I'm very aware how the VA is working some areas but there are many other areas where it is flawed and has been for quite some time.

Be open minded and explore the possibility that there are areas that can be fixed.

Sterling,

I wish it was that simple. However, we have a program in place that is fully funded by the government that is suppose to take care of people like myself. Canada has a health care system that isn't prudent for out Veterans coming back.

The VA is very dangerous to a Veteran that doesn't know how they operate. Your life could be in danger taking their medicine.

In my experience,the VA has a culture of not giving a damn. You get shunted off to the side, sitting forever in a plastic chair on a dingy filthy old tile floor...most of the people you talk to at the VA don't even look you in the face...paint is peeling off the walls (Montrose, NY)...you wait weeks for an appointment...when the time comes the person is in their office fiddling with their computer while you sit there waiting...they cut you off when you try to say something...itsthe way they are

VA sucks , I'd rather convert to Islam , VA is a disgrace and so is anyone who thinks the VA is doing their job

[surfingcali69]

Someone should level the veterans administration , it's a useless disgraceful agency that serves no purpose, fuck you veterans administration - I'd rather join any army that opposes America , this country will fall and the 1% will be destroyed

Everyone has a different experience. Some good, some bad, and we know this is an imperfect system. That's why videos like this are important. It is up to us to create the awareness and change the system so that every veteran gets the help they deserve...the help they have earned.

[jsurfslammer]

I have been a patient of the VA for 20 years they have helped me in every way illnesses, getting into schools that that train me to earn my own way even with my SC disabilities. I get a check each month it helps, it is just to help when I go to the VAMC or the VA regional office, I sit back and hear both sides 98% are glad to have the VA. The other 2% are a bunch of %#!£@&$'s that even if you gave them what they wanted would fund something to complain about.

hi mike,

I'm a 30 year old vet and have been a vet for about 10 years and they have never helped me. They keep giving me to stupid doctors that would never be one in real life. And I've been in servier pain and they just keep adding problems I have but never do anything about it. I've been told they wouldn't give me meds to help me cause of my age. so the army broke me and now I have to live in pain. please contact me so I can do whatever I can to get this out there. Carrie the broken women

Where is our politicians which we have wrote and they do nothing. we have the government NPRC, VA losing our reocords and admit it then we are denied by the VA for compensation because there is no records. They are intentally losing records, so they do not have to give compensation. Right now I been wait 5 years because the NPRC lost and admits loosing my reocords, i have been denied from the VA and now I wait for the VA appeals board another 3 year wait. if your a women veteran you are scr8

I agree I think it is obvious that VA is a fraudulent organizations who lie to government over and over again to siphon taxpayers money,then makes money using our money,by poisoning our veterans.
