Hank,
I know you value your tax cuts, but complaining about paying people who are risking their life for our country is going overboard. These people are and have been sacrificing for all of us, and if they actually enjoyed and got paid for a few weekends of military exercises (and beers) on guard duty, that expense is well deserved for their commitment.
We joke about just about everything here, but let's not belittle the soldiers.
