“The Administration is strongly committed to taking care of our Servicemembers and their families, and appreciates the Committee’s concern for the needs of the most junior enlisted members, but strongly opposes making a significant, permanent change to the basic pay schedule before the completion of the Fourteenth Quadrennial Review of Military Compensation (QRMC),” the White House stated.

“Joe Biden must hate our military. While families of our junior enlisted struggle on food stamps, this administration opposes their pay raises and wants to force feed them pronoun training and drag queen story hour. If Biden had any PRIDE at all in our troops, he’d support the long overdue pay raise House Republicans have passed,” Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said.

Once they bring back the draft, they can cut the pay to $16/month and build more barracks.

The debate should start with whether an E=1 through E-3 should be getting paid enough to support a family. They probably should be in barracks, not family housing, at that level. E-4 would be a closer call.

The better solution than a pay increase might be universal service.

Whats the problem, are you broke between pay days? Lol. How much do you spend on booze? Chasing women? Living off base?

This is all b.s. living on food Stamps? Crappola.

You are given room, board, training.

You were not issued a wife with your seabag.

Live within your means. That means you don't marry above your pay grade.
