You had no problem relating to us that you and yours are well taken care
of thanks to your sock full of gold coins and the union healthcare
plan and pension you were so wise to arrange. Isn't that sort of like
saying "I've got mine. **** you"

Let's see here ...

John earned his for him and his family by fulfilling a 20+ year contract
with the US military serving at the pleasure at several US Presidents.

You earn yours by keeping your union dues paid up to date.

Who sacrificed more for his?

Not the point. It's the "I've got mine, so **** you" attitude of his.

And what sacrifice? Herring was in the military voluntarily.



You want sacrifice, consider a factory worker who spends 20 years on the
job and is pink-slipped, losing health care and quite probably a good
chunk of pension benefits.

I don't know when John entered military service. I think he's of the same
vintage as you and I, and I know I entered "voluntarily" to avoid entering
"involuntarily". He may not have been so lucky.
I don't know.

Once in, many decide to make it a career. Reasons vary per the individual.
I didn't make it a full career with retirement benefits, but I did nine
years to "pay" for educational programs that were offered.

Everyone makes their way through life in their own way. To do so
responsibly, honestly, raising a family and providing for them is key, not
what your title or social status is to others.

Maybe they should have joined the Army. Just kidding. But that said, it
does raise a point.
For some, military or government careers provide the financial and
retirement benefits that many seek. Whats wrong with that? The bulk of
the US Senate does the same thing. Career politicians with decent salaries,
fantastic benefits and huge expense accounts. Talk about milking the
system.

John was prepared to sacrafice a great deal more than that.

It's you that has the attitude, but of course you don't see it.

John was drafted. John had no college education and no money to get one. The
Army provided the means to do so. But, for every carrot the Army offers, there
is a stick. For each year of college, the Army charged two years of service. For
promotions, other schools, etc, the Army has a charge. Eventually it's stupid to
get out before retirement.

It's April. Another response to Harry.

Harry, you just don't get it. My comment about 'I and mine....' had no
'**** you' therein. It had an acknowledgment that Obama and you
liberals may succeed in your desire for socialism. You may end up with
a 'ruling class' and everyone else. I have resigned myself to the fact
that most of you folks don't have enough ****ing sense to realize what
is happening to this country, and that no amount of talking is going
to sway your opinion that Obama is some sort of mystical messiah. So
be it. I'm not going to worry about it.

Now, if that comes across as a, "I've got mine, **** you," then
consider yourself ****ed.

Until next month....maybe.
