@8SSZ8N24yrs4Y
@95WWJ6D3yrs3Y
I believe veterans' healthcare should be privatized the same amount as normal citizens.
@93Q9KJ53yrs3Y
Its fine as it is I guess
@92V2R5N3yrs3Y
Only public health care for all.

No, but the United States healthcare system should become a universal system fully funded by the government. No American should ever have to choose between life saving care or rent.

@8TCLL8SProgressive4yrs4Y

@8PM77225yrs5Y
All veterans should receive the best of the best and at absolutely NO COST! PERIOD!

Less, we shouldn't privatize anybody's healthcare.

Less, we should just implement a single payer system and include them in it
