Summary

This quote suggests that veterans are being unfairly burdened in order to fund the personal agendas and financial interests of influential members of Congress. It implies that rather than prioritizing the well-being and support of veterans who have sacrificed for their country, resources are being diverted towards unrelated projects and contracts that benefit political campaign donors. This highlights a perceived injustice in how resources are allocated, suggesting that veterans deserve more appropriate and thoughtful allocation of funding.
