With the Dems in charge, you can be certain this won't be passed.

Even with the Republicans in charge it shouldn't pass. Servicemen and women are citizens of the U.S. as well, with the same obligations as civilians. One of those obligations is to pay taxes.

Then we should at least pay our military something close to what they would make as a civilian. For a meezley 1k a month, we should either pay them more or pay them tax free.

True. But the GOP is not in charge. The Dems are, and they'd be the last one to pass anything has to do with cutting taxes.

Interesting.

Except I would classify their job as like one of someone who works for McDonalds or sells Insurance.

Would you?

I have all the respect in the world for our military, but its a volunteer military and it has been shown that the pay and benefits equals and usually exceeds equal civilian work......

the military is a job.....PAY YOUR OWN TAXES.....

is it getting to be that our military will be simply requarded as mercenaries rather than patriots?
