“I don’t know what your game is RFEngineer. You what I suspect it is? You want to protect whatever government check you are getting, or someone you live with is getting, so you are prepared to throw the nation’s military on the altar of sacrifice so that your direct deposit is safe. “
Ah, you’ve been reading a previous thread where I claimed to be on government assistance in response to my leg being pulled.....
No, I am a self-employed tax payer. I pay a shitload of taxes. I hate listening to whiners complain about one bit of spending over another - or exclaiming THEIR check can’t be cut until SOMEONE ELSE gets their check cut.
All government spending past a limited threshold IS EVIL. We are well past that point.
I want to cut ALL government spending including defense - because it’s not government’s money.
So what about you SkyPilot? What’s your game? What sort of government check do you get - or from which defense contractor do you get paid?

Oh, so you lie here on the board.
Great. Now at least I know what you are.

Well, if you are telling the truth (this time), there is:
1. No need to use profanity here
2. I pay more than my "fair share" too - trust me
As for myself, I have stated this before on the board and I am proud of it: I am a retired military officer and pilot. I get a retirement check for that - yes. In 21 years of service, three wars, and things that I refuse to divulge here to someone such as yourself, I believe I earned it, and you would be quite shocked to learn that it ain't that much. But if you or anyone else here think that retired military are "undeserving" - go right ahead.
I sure think I earned that more than 99% of most Americans, and I will say the same for each and every veteran in this nation. You will never convince me otherwise.
On top of that, I am disgusted by how ungrateful and shortsighted this nation has become. You don't get to live in Xanadu of Libertarian Land because you won life's lottery. Other people paid a price for it.
I want to cut ALL government spending including defense - because it’s not government’s money.
And I want a pony.
