What do you all think? Should the men and women that defend our freedom, work longer and harder than most of the country, get a pay raise?
Let me know what you think!

YES!! they get paid shitty for the things that they do.

Yes they should. My hubby is in the Army and we are barely getting by. That is not right. He has given is live pretty much...it is not right.

Hahaha The question was phrased a little biased so you look like a total asshole if you say "no," but of course they should! I am not just saying that as a military wife, I am saying it because once my ex-husband and I took what his pay is (factoring in what they say his benefits are worth) and divided it by how much time he actually works and it came out to something crazy like 3 dollars an hour!

Im not sure what they make, but they are putting their lives on the line for us, so they deserve the raise.

Yes.

I like how you think!!!!!!!       SO, what can we do to get this started? It will really suck for us though...because of how much he gets paid, he is getting out when his enlistment is up in Feb. He can make almost triple in the civilian and still have money left over after insurance!

that one.. yeah.

YES! if we can spend 700 billion for fat cat buttholes (and i am a democrat), then our fighters should get more!!!! it's not fair that they do so much and get so little out of it all. look at how corrupted the VA is...
