In the 1990s I sold pensions on the strength that the tax free lump sum would pay off most if not all of the mortgage and leave the investor with a pension for life. Most were over a 40 year term plus, I was not alone.

Our COLA should be exactly the percentage that inflation is on a yearly basis.

Veterans deserve better. Let's take care of them please!!!!

Dear Fellow Veterans,
If you are telling our own community to be āgratefulā or to āget a jobā, please rethink your stance and consider:
1) Not all veterans are capable, mentally or physically of working (consider yourself fortunate if you are; Iām happy for you!)
2) On average, a 100% disabled veterans pulls in around $3800ish depending on dependent status. That is $45,600 per year. It is next to impossible to live off this amount as a single person. I canāt imagine also being a single parent.
3) Because VA disability and comp isnāt taxable, anyone at 100% and not working has essentially ended their contributions to SSI. So, when they are of age to pull, thatās far less than had they been blessed with the ability to work.
All of this considered, ratings are SERVICE CONNECTED. Meaning, it was exacerbated or happened to the veteran while in service of the USA.
I commend you for being able to sustain life beyond your service to the country. But not all veterans are as fortunate.
We have enough people and the system beating us down, do we really need to turn on one another as well?
Do better.

As stated previously, pitiful. We deserve far more than what they project. Disabled Veterans should get a 15% increase every year. Our lives are altered forever by our service to this nation.

I swear, it feels like our country hates us. We aren't trying to get rich, we're trying to survive

As I lay here on the floor because of my back pain, I am so glad to know the VA takes such great care of us, like refusing to do anything for months at a time, and expects us to thank them for miniscule increases. I love the VA so much

The increase should be AT LEAST 95% of total inflation. VA benefits are expensive for the government, but we should NEVER be at the bottom of the list of priorities. Enough foreign intervention, take care of VETS

Rampant inflation, food, gas and housing costs are through the roof! It should be at least 8%.

Vietnam Veteran here. All vets deserve so much more for the sacrifices that they made including a cross the board increase in compensation. $400 to $500 just to keep up with total inflation in their lives . Thanks

PLEASE... For the love of all who've served, give us a decent increase in COLA. It is ridiculously expensive, and I'm barely holding on by a thread.

We need a 20% increase not a 2%

What i find amazing it the fact that secretary McDoungh makes $179,000.00 a year as secretary of veterans affairs and he is getting a 13% pay raise this year. He has never even been into a combat zone or even the military. But he did run a tents for refugees program. In my humble opinion that sucks .

I was involved in a hit and run accident where a vehicle ran me over. I had to go to the ER and i got a huge bill. I am trying to get the VA to pay for it because the VA is the only insurance I have. It has been an uphill battle trying to get help to pay this bill. These politicians are always talking about we love our Vets. This increase is a slap in the face.

As a 100% DV and single mom, to me any increase is a blessing, we're scraping by! Grateful!

Showing a projection of 2.65% as of this month, in case others are just looking for that number. I do enjoy the shortness of the video, thanks for that. straight to the point

Vietnam vet here we need more than what we get

My last pay increase when I was working was 3%. The CEO got probably 25%. Nobody cares about us on the bottom.

I just started getting paid for this so Iām honestly grateful for every penny..however thereās some out there that live off of this, there should be move given to them

I get VA Disability, and while the increase is welcome, itās not like itās going to suddenly make everything more affordable. The cost of housing, food, and utilities just keeps going up.
