CNN Journalist Drew Griffin, who’s been looking closely at the VA scandal, states that the problem is so vast, that the entire bureaucracy is so corrupt, that you can’t just replace a senior official or two and expect to fix the problem.
Then entire VA senior management needs to be wiped clean and started anew, according to Griffin.
How about starting by taking the many whistleblowers that came forward or tried to come forward and promoting them into management after a short assessment period?
they claim that they are “Underfunded”…. But there is enough money to pay staggering bonuses to the people at the top… they do this by hiring the bottom of the medical profession, the incompetent, people who graduated at the bottom of their class, people who are hiding out from malpractice suits, people that can’t even speak english, because, if you work for the government, it has one shining benefit….. YOU CANNOT BE SUED, EVEN IF YOU KILL YOUR PATIENTS…
The hospitals are filthy rat holes, where they do things like NOT sterilize instruments from one operation to the next, ( witness the AIDS epidemic among vets, caused by an anal probe at a VA hospital that was never cleaned or sterilized for YEARS ), etc… Outdated equipment, outdated medical practices, the list goes on and on….
Barbaric – and deadly…
And NOBODY gets called on the carpet – or gets fired, NO MATTER WHAT THEY DO……… they LITERALLY ANSWER TO NO ONE….
I think throwing out all the Administrators would be a good start….They don’t belong there when you hear of the harm they have inflicted on our Veterans…Our Veterans deserve the best, not the worst…..Shame on all of them.
The place needs a thurough house cleaning
Dont stop with just the VA, what about the e.p.a. the f.b.i. the i.r.s. and all the other do nothing agencies
Why are these crooks immune from prosecution?? Lock these killers up.
You have to start at the TOP! That’s where all the Corruption begins!
John Cappts: That is because those overpaid criminals at the top do nothing! There is a lack of supervision and assistance from the top down!
