Quality housing https://www.wral.com/around-1-200-f...rracks-with-asbestos-mold-poor-hvac/20454795/So the C- kid in high school with little ambition is going to collect food stamps at his first low entrance level job? Uhhh ok
Honestly the low E ranks should not be making good money, it’s a legit zero skill job that anyone who’s not retarded or a 300lb land yacht can get….and we pay for it out of our checks
Seeing their housing and everything is provided, IMO they are waaaay over paid and compensated as it is for what they bring to the table
Many years ago as a E5 with 2 kids we were on food stamps......nothing new here
Life choices right?Poor babies!
Shit compare that to what their buddy with the same qualifications lives in while working fast food or wallyworld
How about this, just don’t provide stateside housing, go find a place and pay rent like everyone else?
Life choices right?
Just like this free market stuff everyone is preaching for reloading components then. Can’t bitch if someone else is willing to do/pay what you won’t/can’t

Hard to do when you are in the field for weeks at a time or deployed for months or over a year, or work 18 hour days. But you wouldn't know that would you?Military = big socialism.
go get a side hustle like any other working schmuck
I don’t agree with much of the man that you quoted has to say, but in this case he isn’t wrong. Military is socialism with all the brainwashing through propaganda that comes with it. It’s why many go in as naive young men and come out full blown statists that can never adapt to life off the gov’t tit.Hard to do when you are in the field for weeks at a time or deployed for months or over a year, or work 18 hour days.

there's a statement that surprises absolutely no oneYes
I’m mentally kinda odd
Never adapt to life off the government tit? Hhhhhmmmm, Bowerman couldn't adapt to life off the government tit or Mr. A.G. Russell, Walton, Taylor, Parson, Smith, Kinder, they all didn't find their way among the other thousands that have civilian jobs? What a travestyI don’t agree with much of the man that you quoted has to say, but in this case he isn’t wrong. Military is socialism with all the brainwashing through propaganda that comes with it.

I talked to a recruiter once. He said I was too much of a bad ass to join. I’m an expert now.It is really funny just how much people in this country do not actually know about the US Military. Just like all of the other libtards in the US people talk shit about stuff they do not understand, comprehend, or know anything about.
This is why the country is falling apart. Assclowns taking shit about stuff they know absolutely nothing about, and think they do.
Served what? A corrupt an evil gov’t to enrich bankers, politicians, and oligarchs while spreading the woke agenda around the world. No thanks. You guys need to think a bit and understand the part you play. I don’t like that this is how it is, but it is how it is.I literally laughed so hard I had tears coming out of my eyes at the stupidity displayed in this thread by idiots who have obviously never served.
I did say many and not all now didn’t I? Words can be a bitch sometimes.Never adapt to life off the government tit? Hhhhhmmmm, Bowerman couldn't adapt to life off the government tit or Mr. A.G.

Do you always talk out of your fourth point of contact or just on the internet?
I used to have a financial advisor come to our family readiness group meetings and give a budgeting class.Make budgeting great again.
I don't know this "many" you speak of, do you?I did say many and not all now didn’t I? Words can be a bitch sometimes.
The private sector men like myself fund it all. Gov’t only takes from us and gov employees pay no taxes, the same as welfare rats. We have more right to speak of the military than any gov’t man including those currently serving and obeying the illegal orders of an unconstitutional commander and chief.It is really funny just how much people in this country do not actually know about the US Military.

I still don’t understand that logic? Because taxes fund the .gov paychecks, which are in turn taxed means that the .gov folks pay no taxes?and gov employees pay no taxes
Fair enough. Just remember I don’t say what I say out of hate. The men that comprise “uncle sam” hates the military serviceman or they wouldn’t send them off to die in unnecessary wars while destroying their homeland while they are away. I say what I say because I care about these naive and mostly well meaning young men that don’t know any better and the people that should be watching out for then have succumbed to gov’t propaganda.I'm sure I would love to engage you in that particular argument Wade, but it's been done before here, and I won't change your mind, you won't change mine.
Besides, I get to go shooting for the first time in months since I've been working so many hours at my private sector job, so I'll just get back to my reloading if it's all the same to you.
Now if you'd like to discuss the merits of how much jump I should put on the loads I am working up for my new 33xc barrel, we can talk.
BS! Govt employees pay taxes.gov employees pay no taxes
My goodness. Its common sense and takes the smallest amount of critical thinking and reasoning to comprehend. The gov’t does not create money. The private sector does. You grabbing a handful out of the bucket filled by the labor of the private sector man and tossing a few dollars back in is not adding to the revenue collected by the theft of private citizens. It is no different than taxes being held out of a welfare recipients “paycheck”. It means nothing. If you can’t get that then I don’t know what to say.I still don’t understand that logic? Because taxes fund the .gov paychecks, which are in turn taxed means that the .gov folks pay no taxes?
Bullshit they don’t. Statists understand nothing. Where do you think your paycheck is derived? Gov’t and the salaries of statists can only exist through theft of the labor of the non government working man.BS! Govt employees pay taxes.

I was available for them all the way to E5 also....never applied for them. Maybe it was my pride or my ethics..... Who knows.....Many years ago as a E5 with 2 kids we were on food stamps......nothing new here
Yeah no shit right. Back when I was growing up they used to be coupons......now it's a debit card....I felt bad for my mom. We were in them while she put herself through college. One months she got almost 400 dollars too many from the bank.....well she returned them and the lady at the window asked " well why are you returning them"......gotta love society.Never used food stamps, but we did get WIC when our daughters were real little...it was embarrassing.
Agreed for the socialism part. Me a combat medic makes same as TIG/TIS paper pusher with same time.I don’t agree with much of the man that you quoted has to say, but in this case he isn’t wrong. Military is socialism with all the brainwashing through propaganda that comes with it. It’s why many go in as naive young men and come out full blown statists that can never adapt to life off the gov’t tit.
I’m not incorrect here by any stretch. Fill a bucket half full of water. No matter how many cups you dip from the bucket and pour back in, it will never fill. Water must come from outside the bucket to fill it. I hope this simple analogy helps you understand what many of you can’t seem to.But they do.
You’re horribly misinformed. Now, the fact that all government salaries (including the military of course) are derived from taxes (or deficit spending, which is worse IMHO) is true, but all government employees, including the military pay taxes too…. Some exemptions while in combat zones, but even that’s capped.
I like your passion, and intent, but as I’ve pointed out before, your message is lost with the sheer amount of inaccurate information you throw in, and the unhelpful vitriol with which you deliver that message.
You clearly don’t believe it, but we’re on the same side here… know your audience.
^^^ This. Back in the '70's and early '80's it was common. Probably still is.Many years ago as a E5 with 2 kids we were on food stamps......nothing new here
