I don’t think you have to worry. Nothing is going to get cut. The Republicans increased spending from last year and we let them blame Obama. Why should they stop?
As long as someone on Free Republic can say taking away commissary benefits is too much (and be taken seriously) there will be no cuts. The US monetary system is just going to have to blow up instead.
cost of prescription drugs have already gone up and yes, the retirees will be cut. Look, I don’t blame Obama for everything but I do blame him for increasing spending via greenie bailouts, bank bailouts, money abroad and most of all for Obamacare. Guys and girls sign up...go fight in the wars under Bush 41, 43 and Obama...come home to what? we know there life was no bed of roses and we know why many went but if you think there arent cuts going on..you are mistaken. That being said...it sickens me to see someone go to the dispensary for a runny nose or a splinter in their hand and the commissarys should be cut back and in some cases cut out. Veterans claiming “disabilities” that are undeserved should be booted and charged by the govt for payback and yes, that has happened. Another thing...a young recruit whose wife is popping out kids to the tune of 1 a year and living the military life need to wake UP...but the good guys that worked hard and served honorably are being kicked to the curb
