Today, I want to share my colleague's blog article that talks about unreasonable firing event that related to privatizing VA. My colleague Nick wrote the article that our current president Donald Trump is planning to replace the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, David Shulkin with Admiral Ronny L. Firing someone who worked for the country need to be taken seriously.
On the Donald Trump's twitter, he wrote that Shulkin was fired because he abused his authority to take his benefit. At first, I thought it would be serious amusement that can even result in firing the current Secretary of Veterans Affair, but it wasn't that serious as I thought. It was that Shulkin was on a business trip to Europe, and he spent the majority of his time sightseeing. Moreover, he also accepted Wimbledon tickets as a gift. It is true that Shulkin abused his power to take his own benefits, but it is not enough reason for the firing.
My colleague commented on his blog that the real reason for firing Shulkin was the president Donald Trump's intention to remove his opposition to the privatization of the VA. Also, he mentioned that the private healthcare sector already struggles with its attempts at providing for the general public, and privatizing the VA will only bloat the healthcare system more with the complex health care needs of veterans. I firmly agree with Nick's argument that he made. The Donald Trump's plan to privatizing VA would not bring positive effects to society. I also believe that the primary motivation behind the privatization of the VA is increased profits and even better healthcare for veterans
