Seriously. This article is an embarrassment. Yeah, no shit, our disability payments have gone through the roof. A decade of the War on Terror will due that. Ironically, much of this has come from better medical technology; many people now survive with disabilities that previously wouldn’t have come home at all.

I tried to look up the author of the article, but they seem to be cowardly not sharing it. How much you want to bet it was penned by some neocon who was pushing for the Iraq War before it happened?
