Are you kidding me? To raise your nose at our men and women in the armed forces while bragging about making a wad of money in this country by taking advantage of the security that said armed forces provide... Well eff that. A shred of gratuity would be awesome.

An entry level government worker not getting a paycheck IMO does NOT equate to a young marine fighting on the front-lines in some war-torn country while his wife and baby aren't bringing in money back home.

You realize what you sound like, right? - "American soldiers? Eh, you're worth what my freaking mailman is. No money for you. But God Bless this country because I can sit here and reap the benefits of your potentially unpaid service to this nation with my "handsome" salary. Haha. God Bless America. "
