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:
Guys, as a vet who chose not to go the retirement route, I can tell you a lot of congress critters on both sides wanted this. That’s why I decided to get out while I still have a good back, just too many cats up there that think military get way too much.
here is a better idea ALL RICH PEOPLE PAY MORE TAX’S instead of getting a tax break…… President gets pay cut and has to pay own bills and heath bills….
