There's the budget FY21 - FY25:

$306 Billion in 2021
$460 Billion in 2025

So the VA budget increased 50% in four years.[/quote]
You may have heard that two wars ended in 2020 and 2021 so there were a lot more veterans to take care of?[/quote]

Oh, because they weren't being taken care of in theater, but now they are suddenly?

Stop.

On what planet do budgets rise 50% in four years?  Maybe one where there are no cost controls.

And of course, if anyone tries to rein in anything spending related, they're evil and people are gonna die.     :roll: [/quote]

Congress passed the PACT  act in 2022. Huge new entitlement for all veterans and the bill specifically created the Toxic Exposure Fund.[/quote]
