The more things change, the more they stay the same at GRH4V.

First, we have access to our Face book page again.

Second, we have a big article coming here about Billing the veterans cost of care.

and now, this.

How many times have we posted about the problems with the Snack and Pop machines at the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans? Countless.

Once again, things are back to what is now the normal state of them - broken and overpriced.

The pop machines in Kozy Corners are constantly breaking down.

And once again they are charging 2 dollars per 20 ounce bottle.  This is outrageous and just WRONG.

This when you can get a 2 liter (67.18 ounces) for less than 1.75.  The same amount would cost our vets over 6 bucks from that broken down machine.

Good news is several people are working with our legislatures to get an exemption for ALL of the Michigan Veterans homes, for that law that is currently covering all public buildings and vending machines.

Facebook page may be closing

Facebook locking out accounts

After logging into facebook several times today to play games, and do other things, I logged in to find them doing a security check.

They asked for a mobile phone number. I have never given them one, nor will I ever give those bunch of crooks a phone number. Not after their spyware scandal earlier this year.

When I selected "report a problem" It would tell me to log in.. but it won't let me log in to report the problem.

This is going to cause them to lose a LOT of people. Many of us who use face book do not want face book to have access to all our data, and they have proven they cannot be trusted with it.


The result is the facebook page about the GR vets home may be shut down.
