SUMMARY:
People in America have a great respect for their veterans. All those who have gone to the war receive disability checks because they were in need and now they continue receiving it. To be able to have a disability check is easier than it seems, because the system can be beaten easily.

The writer
of the news item has received a disability check and, since he wanted to cancel
the payment, they wouldn’t let him. American people have the duty to respect
their vets, but it’s exaggerated because the budget has increased a lot in a
few years and it would greatly be better if we stopped it.
OPINION:
I think this is too much, because it is true that they have served their country, but other people who perhaps need checks more than veteran people, don’t get them. We could solve this problem sharing out the money between everybody that needs it.
