President Obama stated Monday that he would support a 20% pay reduction for retiring military personnel as well as redefining benefits for those that leave before achieving 20 year of service. So it’s only a matter of time before these recommendations are realized.
Obama has been cutting natural born citizens out of the military while simultaneously hiring illegal immigrants. He has also been ending highly successful military programs and allowing different components the military to simply degrade, prompting the Washington Times to state that Obama has our decimated our military, leaving the US only ‘marginally able’ to defend itself.
How does President Obama explain his intentions?
After the jump, see insights reported in the Washington Times article, including excerpts from Obama’s message to Congress:
He told everyone that he planned to change everything and the people again drank the Kool Aid! And now we can’t get rid of him, wait and see! Sure hope I am wrong about this too!!
What an insult.
Since the USA spends more on the military than the next 10 countries combined but can’t afford education, health care and basic nourishment for its citizens, then I think looking at military retirement benefits after 20 years of service makes a lot of sense. BTW, before getting your panties in a wad, I served 8+ years in the military and part of that was Vietnam. Besides, I’d like to know which country is a danger to invade the USA? Which country are we defending against?
His cut is to those who service less than 20 yrs
and these vets stand there letting him say alll this?
Hey Obama : how about cuting your pay 40% first.
Who proposed the 20% cut?..
