Yeah, that's us, and I consider us middle class. Do the $200k+ people really think they are middle class?  Maybe UMC at closest.[/quote]

I make $70k. DH makes $150k. But because he's military, people consider us working class. And we certainly couldn't afford $80k a year in tuition. [/quote]

You can make 150k in the military?[/quote]

Yes? The salaries are public. [/quote]

Then why do the military officers need such large subsidies?

Subisidies for

housing - premium
food - commissary
medical care - free and discounted for life

Rent Free for a year!!!

I would rather pay exorbitant combat pay stipends, rather than be on the hook for a lifetime of subsidies to double-dipping and triple-dipping "veterans" who never saw action.[/quote]

What do you mean by double and triple dipping?[/quote]

See Beltway Bandits.  Defense contractors.  Paying contractors to procure one hammer for $2,500.  A waste of taxpayer money.[/quote]
