Hows that bank bailout going

Should we cut TRICARE benefits for families of our military but keep the health insurance we give people who refuse to get up off their ass and work?

TRICARE has copays and monthly premiums, jsyk. In fact, I have a lower monthly premium for family coverage than a soldier on active duty.

I think we should stop making it profitable for people not to work. You should qualify for housing ONLY if you are working. If you don't work, live with your family because you are a family problem, not a societal problem. Make families step up like they should instead of breeding like animals and releasing their young for society to care for. I don't want to pay for someone's slutty daughter who had 4 kids before she could legally drink and someone else's POS son who lives with them and lays on the couch all day. I'd rather pay for a new leg for a soldier who lost one on the battlefield. But that's just me...

IMO, everything has to be on the table. If we're trying to reduce the deficit, nothing is sacrosanct. There needs to be reform in both Tricare AND welfare. When you start saying one supercedes the other, that's when NOTHING gets done. In my ideal world, we'd pick them all apart.

Too bad politics gets in the way.
