While our veterans are literally dying in hospitals within long wait lists – Veterans Administration hospitals have spent around $420 million on solar panels and windmills.
Because it’s important that our veterans DIE so the hospitals can be ‘ecological’…right?
Government agencies have to spend the money they get or they won’t have justification to receive the same, or more, the following year. And, because this government DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN about our vets to spend the money on actual care, they spend the money on something ‘the masses can agree on’ just to spend the money.
In total, VA hospitals reported 23 deaths due to 76 instances of delayed care, an April 2014 VA fact sheet said. Then on June 5, Acting Veteran Affairs Secretary Sloan Gibsonrevealed that at least 18 Phoenix patients died while waiting for treatment on a secret list kept off the books. It is not clear if that number is in addition to the 23 deaths reported earlier. During the past month, the scandal has resulted in the resignations of both the VA secretary and the leaders of its health care component.
According to a June 3 audit, 100,000 veterans had lengthy wait times for appointments. Of the nation’s 216 VA hospitals, 37 percent will require further investigation.
A whistleblower revealed Tuesday that seven of the patients listed on the Phoenix VA hospitals waiting list are already dead. That same Phoenix facility spent $20 million to build the nation’s largest solar carport. Phase one of the project was completed in 2011. The hospital also had an $11.4 million shortfall that year, an Inspector General’s report stated.
Also in 2011, only 49 percent of first-time patients nationwide got a full mental health evaluation within the VA’s own goal of within 14 days after initial contact, the IG’s report said.
The Phoenix hospital is not the only VA hospital to have installed solar panels while hiding long wait times. Millions in stimulus funds were used to install panels on two facilities, one Albuquerque, N.M., and another in nearby Tucson, Ariz.. With the latter, the VA spent $14.7 million between 2010 and 2012 to install solar panels on the roof of its medical center. The contract was awarded to REC Solar, the sixth-largest recipient of stimulus funds from the VA.
During the time of the solar project, one patient at the Tucson, Ariz., hospital died of colon cancer after not getting a routine colonoscopy. That death was revealed in a fact sheet the VA released in early April after an internal investigation.
Obama gotta go the hard way, tight musical rope
I agree with “Screw that Marxist, Muslim, Bastard in the White House” and I say NOTHING will be accomplished until every one of those BASTARDS who lied and concealed the truth about this scandal has been removed, investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law including but not limited to the A G and that illegal alien immigrant and illegally elected ‘potus’.
that’s what people get when you vote democrats they give to the Illegals . the democrats and Obama has turn their backs on the American people and the Vets long enough. it’s time we take our country back and turn our back on them. lets shown them by voting them out in 2014 and 2016
If he was muslim he will never let Israel kill that many Muslim children. He is just self oriented person who looks for his benefits and his pocket.
You people are sheep
Anyone who says that this don’t happen is a damn liar. Not to be confused with a regular liar, but a damn liar
It`s time our military does it`s constitutional duty and remove Obama and Holder from office, feet first if necessary. The military has taken an oath to uphold and defend The Constitution Of The United States, not a would be dictator.
Not a bit surprising from this administration!
WHEN WILL SOMEONE WAKE UP AND SEE THIS BS THAT IS TAKING PLACE?
People need to wake up and realize that not just our gov’t but ALL are looking to kill off as many people as possible in anyway
