"I appreciate your service, but it must be nice to have a sure thing in the bag.

A sure thing? There is nothing sure when it comes to the government.

On the contrary...it’s a sure thing...

“There is nothing sure when it comes to the government.” Taxes and more taxes. Then you die. As one writer
said “everything cost more” Well at least it’s not like carter’s presidency, pay raises were capped at 5% each year and inflation was more than 15% per year. That was the poorest 4 years in my 24 year career. I too want to thank all our veterans for their Service, and have a very Merry Christmas.
