“reduction of military retirement pay”

You are so focused on yourself and your check that you didn’t notice I’m for reducing government spending of all kinds, including unpayable federal, military, state, and municipal pensions. We do it fairly and early and you can preserve more of your interests. If we listen to you the cuts will be far deeper, or maybe even total.

It’s “burn it down” union mentality.

You couldn’t care less because you can’t see beyond your next check.

“You couldn’t care less because you can’t see beyond your next check.”

I can see beyond my check to notice where Congress is spending the money they are taking out of my check. Not a single cent taken from the trust fund will go to save ANYTHING. It is only being spent elsewhere.

This has NOTHING to do with deficit reduction. If it was about deficit reduction, they would cut lots of things, instead of only military retirement pay.

“including unpayable federal, military, state, and municipal pensions”

Except, as I have pointed out to you many times, the military pension HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID. The military pension fund is in the black, and there is no time in the future where it is expected to go into the red. Yet the only ‘cut’ comes from the only program fully pre-paid. Hmmmm....
