VA Supervisor: Older Veterans Should be "Shot in the Head"

Supervisor said older veterans should be "taken outside and shot in the head" to save money

(by Paul Joseph Watson, Infowars) -- A Veterans Affairs whistleblower has exclusively revealed to Infowars that the facility at which he works has engaged in a of cover-up in response to the VA hospital scandal, while also relating the story of how one supervisor expressed his desire to see older veterans "taken outside and shot in the head."

The whistleblower, who wishes to remain anonymous for obvious reasons, works at a large 250 acre VA hospital. He lifted the lid on a number of shocking details during an interview with Sgt. Joe Biggs.

"Recently there's been a very rapid race to move records, boxes, change labels, whatever it may be, they're putting them in rooms that nobody would look in….and there's multiple times that I have seen in the past week or so them moving boxes….so apparently they're hiding their tracks somewhere," stated the VA employee, adding that the activity preceded an inspection of the facility, suggesting it was part of an effort to conceal evidence in the aftermath of the secret waiting list scandal.

Even more chilling was a warning sent out to VA employees at the facility which, according to the whistleblower, was meant to get across the message, "Do you see what happens to the people that try to get things straight around here, they're not here anymore," a tone the whistleblower described as "pretty telling."

The employee also revealed the shocking attitude of one supervisor at the hospital towards older veterans, who asserted that older vets "should be taken outside and shot in the head because they're worthless." The individual still works at the hospital and was not disciplined for his comments.

"How can you stop the corruption and the insanity if you have a supervisor who is a non-veteran saying these things to veterans, scaring them about their jobs and telling them because they're an older veteran 'you ought to be taken outside and shot in the head'," asked the employee.

The whistleblower also related how he knew veterans that had been denied health care at the hospital. However, since the VA scandal broke in the news, the whistleblower states there has been a huge influx of patients into his facility, a move he describes as "a dog and pony show."

Explaining that the scandal went way beyond patient care, the whistleblower said that corruption within the VA was "overwhelming," and that working doctors were being replaced by students and residential doctors on weekends to save money.

"That creates a cost cut on the clinical side which lines the pockets of the upper administration and puts our veterans' health at risk," asserted the whistleblower, adding that his facility routinely loses patients and that "there's lack of care everywhere."

The employee also revealed that cronyism was rampant within the hospital, with family members of existing staff being hired in preference of veterans in desperate need of employment.

"It's a huge bureaucracy and it's a huge game and somebody has to break the corruption," stated the whistleblower, adding that people were scared to speak out because they might lose their jobs and their pensions.

"There's more than just what you're seeing on TV and they're hiding a lot of things and you're never going to see it on the mass media," concluded the whistleblower.

The new revelations come in the aftermath of a scandal that has claimed the lives of at least 40 veterans as a result of them being kept on secret waiting lists. The backlogs which caused the deaths are now known to have occurred in at least 19 states. New questions have also emerged about VA workers gaming the system at the expense of veterans. A whistleblower also revealed how she was ordered to falsify records of appointments at Fort Collins, Colorado to make it appear as if veterans were receiving speedy treatment.

Concerns that the VA scandal represents an example of death panels waiting to happen under Obamacare have been expressed in recent days as Obama himself faces mounting criticism over his failure to address the issue publicly.

"It's simply unconscionable," said radio host Rush Limbaugh on his national broadcast Monday. "So you have to ask, the natural assumption is that nobody wants these people to die, even if you add the death panel component, nobody wants these people to die, yet they are. At the very least what we're dealing with here is a total inability to deal with this. And at worst it's the death panel being done on purpose."

The issue of death panels and the eugenicist mindset of people having to die in order to allow others to have jobs or health care has stoked controversy for years, most notably in 2010 when Bill Gates suggested that elderly patients should be denied medical treatment in order to spend the money on hiring more teachers. Newsweek also promoted a similar idea in a 2009 front page story entitled 'The Case For Killing Granny'.
