The Pentagon spends over $2,000,000,000 every single day. Meanwhile, 40,000 veterans experienced homelessness last year. What if "support our troops" meant reinvesting funds to actually provide veterans with basic necessities?
@Public_Citizen every fighter jet order should come with an attached order for 100 beds... or whatever, but tie it to actual spending
@Public_Citizen Vets should be treated like royalty in our country‼️🇺🇸
@Public_Citizen Yes, as a step toward a system in which we no longer send people to kill other people at all.
@Public_Citizen Recognized in uniform, discarded in plain clothes. Our vets deserve better. #VeteransDay2021
@Public_Citizen @beckonuts This is because there is no oversight of that annual budget by Congress. Vets not being taken care of, is an indictment of our society.
@Public_Citizen NASA spends millions per day as well. For WHAT?!?!!
@Public_Citizen ...Add medical analysis and treatment from #BurnPits too! No veteran should be homeless or be lacking for medical care.
@Public_Citizen Combat veterans seem like a good group to pilot UBI…just saying
