Obama, What does this mean for the military?
If Obama plans to cut the military is that the end of the benefits join. As bonuses, GI Bill, student loan repayment, etc. .. Will you still be able to get waivers to join the army?
Historically, the Democratic Party has worked to reduce the armed forces. They voted against pay raises important. They reduced allowances, bonuses back to the recruitment and offered early retirement with reduced benefits. President-elect Obama has said he is time for change so I think we just need to wait and see. I read something that did not reduce the budget but intended to redistribute between active duty and veterans, providing more benefits for veterans. Under the current administration the army has received a substantial pay raises. We had life insurance has increased available. The advantage of landfill survivors increased from 5k to 50k. I hope the new administration continues to take care of its armed forces.
