4.6% is less than half the rate of inflation. As usual the military gets it in the shorts.

That is crap! Military Retirees get the whole 8 percent plus. I mean I’m grateful but the active duty should get it as well.

Still making less with respect to costs involved.

Still shortchanging the troops. Not a big surprise,actually,from a draft dodger who doesn’t even *try* to hide his disdain and contempt for the Armed Forces.

The lyin’ horse-faced, doggy boinker has weaponized the U.S. Treasury against the America taxpayers. I now can understand why the Brandon administration’s Swamp varmints are hiring 87,000 tax collecting Swamp varmints. Biden is a bigger crook than the Sheriff of Nottingham. What America is going to need is a whole boatload of Robin Hoods to fight back against the fascist government full of crooks and thieves.

coming from the guy that has to be reminded to salute when embarking/disembarking Air Force One and Marine One. The 4.6% increase along with food stamps will still come up short when it’s time to pay the bills.

The good news is that because of the Covid mandates, there aren’t as many to give a raise to . . .

8+% for SS recipients
4.6 for the young people putting their lives on the line to protect them.

Sounds about right. (Eye roll)

Retirees got more than active duty. Really lousy pay raise. Intent is clearly to demoralize.

a basic pay raise for 2023 of 4.6%, far higher than 2022's 2.7%.

I just read where inflation is now over 13%. Stick it to the service members and give billions to Ukraine for $40,000+ Paris shopping trips. Ah, it's the Democrat way.
