She’s disabled. She can’t work or go to school. How do you expect her to exercise?

She’s home bound. Thankfully taxpayers are generous enough to pay for her groceries.

Sarcasm: [off]

VA disability is not based on income. Why would it be?

It’s also not based on being disabled.

Maybe they should rename it. Many people seem to think it's something similar to SS disability.

Because they are not disabled if they can earn $300k. Then change the name of the benefit.

The only downside to changing the name is that it would serve no real world purpose and would likely cost a lot of money. Maybe a few less people on internet message boards would be triggered. But I promise you the VA would spend billions to change it.

I know a guy that makes six figures annually on disability due to “PTSD”, but still works on a $75k salary.

Have another buddy that’s active military and our tax dollars pay him $20k every three years when he moves, if he moves his own shite.

Watched a short clip and she’s the typical veteran’s wife. My husband served this country so he shouldn’t have to work..

It needs to be called Compensation for Service-Induced Damages or something to that effect because that's what it actually is.

When they tell him to move. And your buddy is lying to you, that’s not how it works.

Your math ain’t mathing.
