"2010 Compensation & Pension Rate Information:
VA compensation and pension benefits cost of living allowance (COLA) is paid based on the Social Security Administration (SSA) COLA. Compensation COLA by statue may not be more than the SSA COLA and pension COLA is equal to the SSA COLA. This year SSA did not increase COLA."
By the way it's the first time in 35 years an increase hasn't been approved.
Yet let's remember that the Democrats who run congress voted themselves a pay raise earlier this year. But don't question their commitment to the vets.

the govt. of ancient Rome treated their veterans better than the U.S. govt.At least you got something worth while from them back in the day ie:home,land and even slaves... not that i'm condoning that part of it. I feel as if we are the ones who have become the slaves to the system, and the the powers that be. The disabled vets cola should be detached from social security cola. so they dont continue to screw us and let us fall through the cracks!
