That the Left wishes to denigrate military service and veterans is a given-although many, if not most, on the Left will lie about it. But in this case trying to make wounded veterans use private insurance companies to pay for their care has more to do with Socialized Medicine then Veterans per se.
Forcing their insurance to pay for service connected wounds would make veterans unemployable-companies that do provide insurance just could not afford to hire them regardless. They would then be one more agent for National Health Care. The closing of Veterans Hospitals and rolling them into a National Health system has happened in Britain and long been a goal of the American Leftist.
The Obama administration is much worse than a mere laughingstock: they are indeed Hard Left.
