Veterans also suffer from a higher rate of unemployment than the general population. Often, they are the subject of ridicule for failed and controversial policies for which they are not responsible but made to carry out, particularly when one is unable or unwilling to see the failings of the two-party system (which is really not all that different from a single party system). Every day, and especially on Veterans Day, every American should pause and reflect on the freedoms they enjoy. They should thank those responsible for giving them those freedoms. We as Americans should be disgusted by the politicization of the issue.
In spite of these victims are veterans often overlooked, but when it is politically convenient, or reprimanded for their services. They have been used by politicians from both parties (especially the Republicans in recent years or the Democrats want to score points with conservative or moderate voters).

They will then cut a cake with a knife and the stake until all the cake gone.
The Corps’ strength has been consecrated in sacrifice and tested in battles over the years. Although always resilient in strength, the Marine Corps has continuously adapted and evolved, often through extraordinary innovation.
