From my understanding, it's an attempt to force accountability in the government by requiring Congress to approve wars, which would automatically trigger a tax. Of course no one wants to pay more taxes for wars. That's the point! But that's not a flashy narrative so he frames it (poorly) around veteran benefits. Maybe that's a naive reading that wouldn't actually work, and the optics are definitely bad. --- DPOblivion was far more determined than me. <cite>HeroDelTiempo17 posted [p:923781807] in Politics C...
