Further, we've been paying them for years, doing nothing. Without the tax
base, who would be fighting the wars. Most people go into the army because
they can't do anything else in life. Is it akin to being an engrish teacher
in Japan? Well, that's another story. The point is, they wanted the free
ride.... the free college..... the free everything. Now they've gotta pay
for it and the families are whining? It's distasteful and sickening hearing
those families and military personnel bitch and moan about it.
