Sounds like Levin isn't the only Rat that wants to cut benefits. This is wrong!

[cripplecreek]

Levin is retiring.



Michigan legislative action thread

[Fledermaus]

But he and his colleagues and staff get massive, tax funded benefits for life.

FU Levin.

[MeganC]

I can see what they’re doing. They’re trying to push the military and veterans into Obamacare.

[Crazieman]

So cut the military family benefits, but expand the lazy lowlifes’.

Makes sense.

[cherry]

the military budget is WAY overboard....I'd like to see small changes made over several years....there is plenty to whittle down on..

but I am all for cutting the big fat rich boy Pentagon elites of most of their goodies......

This is a great idea as long as no one gets the crazy notion that these cuts should apply to illegal immigrants as well. We all know that would be immoral, racist, unfair, and might cost some Democrat politicians their jobs. Proceed with caution Mr. Levin, remember what is really important for our country, I mean what’s really important for our party.

They want very badly to take these small steps [that will reduce troop benefits/increase the cost of living for our warriors].

They are not small for those already underpaid. Levin and his fellow travelers must have some of the brass over the barrel a la Petraeus.

Where’s that War On Poverty Peace Dividend? Bill Clinton took the Cold War Peace Dividend to buy votes for Democrats.

[DJ Taylor]

Why did this make me think of Rudyard Kipling?

For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Chuck him out, the brute!”
But it’s “Saviour of ‘is country” when the guns begin to shoot;
An’ it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ anything you please;
An’ Tommy ain’t a bloomin’ fool — you bet that Tommy sees!

ANd How many ILLEGAL CRIMINAL INVADERS are you offering Welfare too?? You talk about quislings.

What a Country

[Bruce Kurtz]

“The Pentagon wants the legislation to include measures that would boost out-of-pocket fees for Tricare, the health plan for military families, and require service members to kick in for up to six percent of their housing.”

Yea, that will attract more recruits. Up here in the Mohawk Valley of NY, they closed Griffiss AFB in 94. Some people wanted to use the vacated family housing for the homeless, but it was determined that the housing did not meet the standard for the homeless, so the housing area was left to decay.

[Obstinate]

This sickens me: they want to take benefits from the folks protecting this nation, and give new benefits to folks that are here illegally.

And they think this is OK.
