Hopefully not, I did my 22 years. The Military does pay social security tax.

I know President Obama like to refer to us as Working Retired when talking about our heath care (Tricare). Obama doesn’t like the military.

If they did that to the military they would have to do that to federal employees also.

“If they did that to the military they would have to do that to federal employees also.”

You mean just like military get their retirement reduced if they also get VA disability but other federal retirees get full retirement plus any VA disability?

Years ago, the state of NC tried to take away a retirement promise they made to employees. What I remember was that a retired state Judge sued the state: the retirees won!

My point is that if the gov’t makes a promise, the gov’t has to keep it.
