They don't actually care about the troops as people. As long as there's a man, woman, or child to hold a gun, the Republican party would gladly send them over to make a profit. I'm not saying the Democratic party is any less reprehensible though.
Well by protecting foreign interests and accomplishing goals(and if its profitable for the nation, even better), they serve the nation. Of course, when serving your nation, you must be selfless, but those who have done their duty must also receive something back from the nation as a reward for their selflessness and willingness to fight and bleed for the interests of the nation.
How about the people? Why are they not scraping something together to help the veterans that have perhaps lost limbs in this course?
There's certain programs out there, but it's like taking a test you got an F on and then getting a D. Both parties claim they love the vets through words, but not through actions.
