I'm sure the 1% from working age veterans seemed like a tiny little thing to Paul Ryan and Patty Murray, but it is a despicable little piece of political BS.
We should not approve any changes to any benefit package that was in place when people enlisted. Totally wrong, and should be illegal.
How about we cut Congressional pay and benefits first.

I agree 100% percent. I would cut every member of Congress' pay by 10% and slash their budgets and slash their staff. If you don't perform, which they have not, then you get less. Period.
Troops who have 3, 5, or even 7 tours in dangerzones in the last decade are gettting a cut in benefits. You got to be kidding me. They are already under paid. Total crap in my book.
