From a reader: I'm retired to the Philippines and I’m happily married and I
don't drink. Why don't I live in the US anymore? Look at the political system
that is so dysfunsional it's tearing our country apart as there is no longer
integrity or compromise in our system.When a Senator piped out and called our
Commander in Chief a Liar at his swearing in I knew it was time to leave. I
came here to live close to my wife's family and am outr, in the past. I'm
enraged you would clump us all into this type of catagory. I'm a 100% combat
wounded and have watched our country deny the WWII Filipino veterans their
promised benefits time and again for the last 50 years. There is very good
medical healthcare available here ( Medical City in Malate and St. Lukes
hospital in Manila. Evidently your another adherent to the garbage called
"American Exceptionalism". You can't micromanage a system half a
world away without understanding the culture and there should be a committee
including those who have to use the system here. Must be nice to live in an
area with so many active duty bases that you can also use. If you'd do a little
research, you'd find that Champus IS a program promised to military retired
personnel, regardless of us living in one of the old US territories.
