No, I'm basically indentured servant for my family.

I get to stay at their house by doing tasks & sometimes get payed.

I'd rather be a man on my own two feet than depend on the fam for every fukking thing:whew:

But tuition assistance to 1% of the population does?

:beli:

sequester just blindly cut 13% from all defense programs. they didn't single out this particular program. In fact, the law prevents the picking and choosing of programs. So yes, cutting 13% from the defense budget does effect the deficit. Educate yourself before you throw rocks at the throne.

never said anything about the DOD budget not needing to be cut, but pushing it all the way down the hill to tuition assistance is irresponsible.

and :heh: at your thrown comment, being all argumentative for no reason :shaq2:

whole sequester is irresponsible. but what don't you understand about it being blind cuts? they didn't push it down to anything. they had to cut 13% from every program not specifically exempted.

So basically for now on if you join the Army you can use the GI Bill Benefits to pay for school...and that's only after you serve your 4 years?

But in the article dude had already sent all of his GI Bill Benefits to his wife and was gonna use the tuition assistance program :huh:
