Just sniping here, but you do too have an interest. You pay taxes, just like the rest of us.

Personally, I think the military needs to redo it's pay system. We should, as a country neither be paying one guy/gal more because he's married, nor should be providing special programs and bennies to another guy/gal because they're single. Under the 120mm pay redo system, some will earn more, and some will earn less.

And please, spare me the "holy sainted soldier" b.s.. Frankly, soldier pay is more than ample, now. Especially since a significant amount of it is direct benefit, which makes their net pay seem smaller.
