This is a story I first heard about on the Dominick Bracia Show on 960AM WERC. Our fearless leader is proposing that our military men and women pay for injuries sustained in war with their own private insurance.
The link below is a blog entry I found referencing this same story:
http://www.economicpolicyjournal.com/2009/03/proposal-to-have-soldiers-pay-for-war.html
Does this moron not realize that our military is made up of volunteers who believe in this country and what it stands for? Does he not realize the sacrifices made daily by each of these men and women, along with their husbands, wives, and children?
Does he expect a soldier who has been shot or hit my shrapnel to pull out an insurance card IN THE FIELD and sign documentation verifying the insurance coverage or does he expect them to pull out a credit card and have a credit check run before being treated? Will they be turned awayu from field hospitals if they have no means to pay?
The absurdity of this plan is beyond comprehension.
