You think “double dipping” is wrong? Then get congress to rewrite the contract. Go ahead and eliminate military retirement altogether. See what kind of military you get, mkay?

yes leatherneck, I love the military but we out here who are the ones supporting all this stuff can’t afford it for military officers to then start collecting their retirement, go to work for the federal government as a GS 11 or 12, retire from there, collect retirement, collect social security, collect cost of living increases on all three, chit man, why don’t you take some of that lucre you have gained from the taxpayers’ blood sweat and tears and start a manufacturing plant or factory? We who are paying for all this are self paying our health insurance, driving cars that are 10 years old, and y’all are giving us government services we don’t want, and enforcing on us as part of your job in the executive branch regulations by the bushelfull that we don’t want. How about becoming part of the solution instead of part of the machine that is killing the goose that lays the golden eggs?
