The only one named in the article was a retired general pulling a 6 figure pension. I also factored in that 75% of retired flag officers work as executives or consultants in the defense industry, where I presume they make salaries north of $250,000. It wasn’t someone getting $25k a year in disability, which wouldn’t be taxed anywhere who was complaining about paying his state taxes. It was a general whose income a least makes him upper middle class or higher. With a little help from Google, the General in question was all enthused about the promotion of the Air Forces first Lesbian General. He thought it was fantastic. That should go over real great in these parts. I agree, it was well earned, but so are his neighbors income well earned.

After examining the article, trust me, General Wells is definitely part of the 75% working in the defense industry. It is no coincidence that Boeing is located now in the state of South Carolina.

Interesting.I'd bet that he was rewarded handsomely by Obola for his loyalty to the Rats.I wonder if he rose from MAJ to LTG over the last 6 years?
