10. This is a particular pet peeve of mine.

I'm a veteran. I'm in fairly good shape for being one. But I know, personally, others who were not as lucky as me. The charge was that the U.S. would take care of every veteran for the sacrifice they made in serving this country. So, what the f*ck are all these private agencies doing gigging money on the lowdown from everyone? Veterans reduced to the crying infomercials of abused animals and kids with cancer. It just really jacks my jaws. Even if we were not injured, every single one of us gave up a spate of our freedom to protect this country. And the govt just keeps going back on its promises, leap by gallop, denigrating our service all the while.
