It probably is as you say. But I speak from the inside looking out. Not from a position of someone on the outside looking in. Medical care is not a benefit in so much as it is a safety net. Some feel as if it's an entitlement of pay (Many I served with), rather than a care and respect for those who put themselves in harm's way. One train of thought is showing benevolent gratitude and the other is just socialism.
