The Philosophy of Freedom/Libertarianism/Doctrine of free will / Re: Is it moral for a reformed unemployed disabled military veteran to collect

I would love to see humanity come together and make a private veterans hospital and private VA assistance program. One that would be voluntarily contributed to.
Shhhh I havent paid taxes since 2008

I like the idea of the penny.
I just feel moral quandry with the idea of taking taxpayer money.
I violated my morals for so long that nowadays I live an extremely principled life... Which tends to get me a lot of flack from the "violate the pledge" libertarians, like all of the Gary Johnson supporters.

If I could find a job I would say to heck with disability. (Im still not recieving it yet anyway... Sometime between june 16th and october 26 I should recieve it according to ebenefits.va.gov) right now I am back to being homeless and living in my moms house (worst feeling ever for someone who supported himself for 15 years on his own.

Would you say that it is immoral for a disabled unemployed veteran to collect VA Disability checks? I have struggled with this idea. Yes we signed a contract with the federal Government when we very stupidly joined the military for obviously misguided reasons. When we are injured, it is part of said contractual agreement that they will pay us for our injuries and give us healthcare.
However, the healthcare is paid for their extorted funds by all people within the imaginary borders of the USA and so is the Disability.
What are your thoughts on this?
How about you Adam?

I would like to take on any roll you need help with out here. My name is Mike Rydinsky. I am a reformed military veteran. I wasted 10 years of my life in the Army. I am getting better now. I am unemployed, disabled, and spent my time exposing as many people as possible to the idea of owning one's body and voluntary existance.
I am currently  working with your facebook online team and helping spread the word that way and have been spreading the world as much as I can around town. I would definitely like any medium you might have available that can be used to help spread the word if possible around town. I would also like to see about arranging  you coming out to the local libertarian group to speak on your upcoming tour.
Any flyers, stickers, whatever you can spare would also vbe greatly appreciated. I have converted some of my college professors to voluntarists from liberal statism at my college in California before I moved up here to Illinois.
I can represent Kendall County. Im in Oswego , illinois (right next to yorkville)
Thanks so much
