Maybe a better way to say it is, finally after 35 years of being ignored, a president, President Obama pushed the issue so Veterans can finally be taken care of in a proper time frame.

And actual VA healthcare/insurance, is fine... it's not perfect because we don't have enough of them, outside of that it works.
