Rise of Disabled Veterans

So I will start this thread off by saying I am very thankful for every person that takes the step to enlist to protect our country. We need it and they are the ones that give us our freedom.
However, I am in the car industry and I have noticed more than I can count on two hands in the past year, disabled veterans that get all the perks and money and so on for being a DV but are under 25. Young healthy males that claim the DV and get tax benefits and money.
Have they recently changed the criteria to become DV? Back as a kid, I remember most DVs missing legs or hit with shrapnel and things like that. More severe cases. Now the cases, based on assumption alone, seem to be minor.

There are 25 yr olds out there that have lived through more shite than you could even imagine. Not all wounds are visible.
Now get back to selling cars, shithead.

Going to have to agree with Terd. If they were in combat, you should just quietly mind your own business. Be thankful it wasn't you.

Some truly are physically or mentally ill. Some are riding govt disability as a form of welfare. Hard to tell which is which.

If you haven't walked in their shoes, GFY.

Don’t look into “disabled vet” who is disabled due to type 2 diabetes…even if it’s a % of disability……that’ll piss you off.

Car salesman playing doctor.

in a place known for shitty takes, this might be the worst i've seen

I’m assuming you haven’t served, but you worship the freedoms you have that were protected on the backs of us. You’re entitled to your freedom of speech, and I am too,,,,please think before you post dogshit like this.

My neighbor is a “disabled veteran” that drives a lifted f250 and hunts/fishes all the time. Unclear what his disability is, Ive never asked. Otherwise nice guy and good neighbor.

I have full respect for Purple Heart veterans.

I'm also a DV but sometimes people bitch more about this then all the Mexicans getting way more free shite and the 10s of millions on food stamps.

I did two tours in Anbar by the time I was 24. I can’t tell you how much I value the opinions of car salesmen. Thank you for all you do.

All those late evenings trying to close a sell on those cars is very similar to overseas deployments to lands where Americans are hated. Yep almost the same. Definitely qualified to chime in on DVs.
