$8.7 Million in Bonuses Paid at Seven Veterans Affairs Centers

More than $8.7 million in your tax dollars has gone to bonuses for VA admin hacks at seven different Veterans Affairs Centers. This despite the recent news about veterans dying waiting for care, the VA cooking the books, etc. This also isn’t some sort of new problem that just cropped up with Obama. This has been going on for decades, and still Obama/Shinseki feel the need to reward the incompetence. Of course, it’s only our money. The Phoenix VA alone was given nearly a million dollars in bonuses by Obama and Shinseki.
