Default Neverwill's Obamacare at its' Finest

Somehow I doubt that Neverwill will ever post something like this due to his left wing media bias.

I'm very alive': Army veteran declared dead 4 times

For former Army drill sergeant Jerry Miller, being alive has not been sufficient proof that he's not dead. The U.S. Veterans Administration has declared him deceased four times since 2010, despite evidence to the contrary. WESH-TV's Dan Billow reports.


By WESH.com
PALM BAY, Fla. — Despite rumors to the contrary, Army veteran Jerry Miller is still very much alive.


"I'm alive. I’m very alive," Miller told WESH 2 News.


The U.S. Veterans Administration has declared him dead four times, but Miller, a Brevard County resident, has refuted the claims.


"To me, it’s stupid. I can’t die but one time. They have killed me four times," he said.


Miller, a former drill sergeant, served 10 years in the Army. He said he lives on a government pension and Social Security.
The confusion started in July 2010 when he received a letter addressed to his estate that expressed sympathy for his death and politely explained that, as a dead man, he was not eligible for the veterans benefits he was paid.


Miller said he informed the VA that he was still alive, and his benefits were restarted. But the letters kept coming, each one stopping his benefits.


"I'm alive, you see. This can’t keep going on and on," Miller said.
He said a letter came this month -- addressed to his estate -- requesting repayment of more than $94,000 in benefits he shouldn't have received, because he was dead, and that it included polite instructions how to make the payment.
Miller said he has no idea why he was declared dead.


A VA spokesman told WESH 2 News that the organization was looking into the case.


Miller said he asked his congressman to do the same, but so far, being alive has not been sufficient proof that he is not dead.

A mistake is a mistake.

I hope this guy gets "THEM" to straighten it out.

I know that you hate the idea of someone removing fraudulent people from the program, but in this case it sounds like a mistake.

Rep's love spending on what they want money spent on.

Your supreme leader seems to be making a lot of mistakes but for some strange reason you Dumbocraps keep blaming it all on Republicans, you always have an excuse!

True.

So do I. Why are you using some anonymous pronoun like them instead of questioning the person in charge?

This sounds like a straw man argument, along with a false statement of fact since you wrote that "you know."

This is part of why a lot of the more conservative members are not taking you more seriously. It doesn't matter what topic people bring up or discuss. You try to turn it into some conspiracy blanket statement against a party and its' members that you apparently do not like.

It's always going to be "THEM" who are the problem in WillPA's and Saluki's world. What they're really saying is "WE won't take responsibility for anything bad/stupid, WE blame those things on other people."

I guess this Veteran should be shoved out the door and have his health care neglected forever.

The alternative is to provide him with a guarnateed gov't run system that will honor him for his service. In this case something is F'd up but I would hope we can take care of our veterans rather than just shoving them out the door to a private system as you guys wish.

I am sure you think it might save Romney or his types a little money if we just neglect the veterans.

Not me.

BTW I doubt Obama had anything to do with his problems. Of course the right will blame him for everything.

Blame him for getting rid of Bin-Laden and Quadaffi while you are at it. Bush never could or wanted to.

I think you mean Clinton. Get your presidents straight. You may have a test this week in social studies. Would want to get an F. It doesn't look good on your transcripts don't you know.

Tough on terrorism. Right?

Obama care is a perfect example of back door dead of night law being shoved down our throats and costing huge sums of money we don't have.both parties are guilty of this, just take a look at "Mittens" care bush and cheney used the "terrorism" card as political cover for there special interests and it cost this country BIG TIME.the reps & dems in this country are far more dangerous IMHO, than Islamic terrorism

Let's see, 9 months on the job, Clinton's strategy still in place because the Dems, who controlled the senate, we're blocking hearings on over half of Bush's appointments at the time. Does your so called company function without half your people not at work?
