Military widows must remarry?

What's really amazing is that some people want the same people that came up with this to also handle our health care.

Another wonderful case of bureaucracy at it's finest.

The inequity is not that a widow has to remarry to receive insurance. The inequity is that if a widow receives a monthly insurance dividend and also collects Survivor Benefit Plan payments, federal law states that the amount of SBP has to be subtracted from the insurance dividend to ensure that they are not "overpaid". VA disability pay and retirement pay run into the same issue unless the retiree qualifies for concurrent receipt (collects both payments with no penalties).

The "widow" loophole seems to be a half-assed attempt by Congress to try and fix the problem, but it didn't work out the way they intended. It also sounds like the law is being fixed, but costs too much.

Not crazy, just a poorly written law that Congress doesn't seem to be worried about.

If that is a state allowance than the government is entitled to do what it needs if the couple knew what they have been getting. in the event that they did not like it they certainly might have taken out inner maximum coverage. Now that stated this does seem very extraordinary to me. while you're scuffling with on your u . s . then certainly one much less hassle is that if something occurs to you, your spouse and youngsters might discover the money for for a first rate existence. i'm uncertain i could decide for yet another guy getting into my homestead for what could be a defined and defined by employing you as a dowry! Very extraordinary. i don't understand why that is one in all those great deal to get married! right here in Britain that is in all threat to pass any opposite direction as in if a females gets remarried then she will have the skill to lose a number of her income with the logic being that the guy might have his very own income and to that end the enjoyed ones income could enhance, to that end no want for each and all the income. i think of the two structures are incorrect and no remember how the females makes a decision to stay her existence after her husband is KIA she might desire to settle for the completed volume and that's that. that is not as much as government to interfere into human beings's own lives like that. I believe you..

The way things are going, don’t be surprised if living retired Veterans lose their pension next due to a typo.

This is what happens when nobody proofreads a law before voting on it.

The more you expect from government the more disappointed you will be.

Honestly, your question was really long and the article was really long, I have the attention span of a seven year old and I barely skimmed each but, on the surface, it does seem messed up.
