Want Health Care? Then Bite Your Tongue.

This is an outrage:

An Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran says Army officials at
Fort Knox, Ky., refused him medical treatment after he talked publicly
about poor care at the base, which helped spark hearings in Congress.
Fort Knox officials charged that soldier, Lt. Jullian Goodrum, with
being absent without leave and cut off his pay after he then went to a
private doctor who hospitalized him for serious mental stress from
Iraq, Goodrum said. "They are coming after me pretty bad," said
Goodrum, 33, a veteran who has served the military for more than 14
years, including the first Gulf War and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
