Veterans Face Vast Inequities Over Disability

The military likes to say whether someone is active duty, reserve or guard they are all servicemembers. But apparently after getting wounded in war, when its time for the government to pay up, it does matter whether you are active duty or not. Slimeballs. Yes, let's all keep supporting this war so more people can fall victim to the goverment's treatment of wounded servicemembers.

For Mr. Curry, the reservist from Chicago who has fallen behind on his mortgage payments, his previous life as a $60,000-a-year postal worker is a fading memory. “It’s just disheartening,” he said. “You feel like giving up sometimes.”
Nobody cares. He'll lose his house and no one will think twice. Chicago...thats in Illinois. Might want to get on that Mr. Obama.
