Higher Pay to Disabled Vets!

Payments to disabled veterans should be increased by up to 25% as part of an overhaul to compensate a service member for lost 'quality of life" the Veterans Disability benefits Commission said. The government benefits system that provides millions of injured veterans with $30 Billion a year in payments is too focused on earnings losses, the congressional commission said. Its 2.5 year study concluded that the Defence and Veterans Affairs departments fall short in providing mental health care and timely disability payments.
