I come from a military family and I hate it when I see arrogant chickenhawk politicians and contractors (like Bush, Cheney and their pals) getting rich while benefits for serving personnel and veterans are eroded.
Good points, but I would have to ask:
Why do people join the military? Is it for "benefits"? Maybe people are joining the military for the wrong reasons.
I am like you, redkitty. I get tired of hearing and reading about our veterans getting short-changed by politicians but we all know that there are many things that go on behind the scenes in the political arena--and this is just one of them. There are MANY different factors that go into politics and the decisions that politicians make...I would say that try to elect the most moral ones...
