WASHINGTON — Citing a problematic military health care system, a Republican senator on Thursday introduced a bill to allow veterans to receive care from the private sector.

Stories about outpatient issues at Walter Reed Army Medical Center have led lawmakers to express outrage over conditions for wounded soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, said he thought Walter Reed Army Medical Center's problems were isolated, but he wants service men and woman to have the additional option just in case.

"There may be that concern, there may be that unique problem, and if there is and if it puts someone's life at risk, then they darn well ought to be cared for in a timely and appropriate way and that may be private access," Craig said.


I wonder if they can just issue a general mandate to Republican administrators to **** up as many programs as possible and then privatize them all. There's a subtle genius to it really. "Hey, if we let a few more wounded troops die, our shares of Cigna will skyrocket!"

Right, but they really need to get started on the things they neglected. Like maybe disaster relief or something.

Oh wait.
