This just pisses me off. I cant even go to school because it costs too much, and one of the few ways that i could go to college without being in debt for the rest of my life, is no longer an option, yet an illegal can get free college...

It's bull shit. Our soldiers don't get money for college, they come back from overseas with PTSD and missing limbs, but they don't get care for that either.

The GI is immune cuts. Now, processing of applications is a different story...

Ahh  I see. But still, our soldiers deserve a good tuition. I personally vote for the cutting of foreign aid and "lesbian fatness research" and an increase in military benefits and public services. We should also have a national pizza day. Sure, we'd all get fat off our asses, but it's pizza. Who cares?  ;D

Welcome to America. Where the government stops caring about its own people drops everything for a group of people, who aren't even legally here, because it would be "racist" not to. The government is a pussy, in my opinion.

I signed my contract for the Navy literally two days before this was released -_-

Ah well, not like I need school anyways..

From what I heard is that only the Army and Marines are getting cut. Is this true? Or is the cut for everyone? And does this effect ROTC scholarships?

How about kids get vocational train in high school, like every other industrialized nation? That's just my thing.

As far as the pizza day goes, Rick yeah! Everyone wins, even fat lesbians.

We have vocational schools you can go to in high school.  The issue is kids use it as a way to get out of half of their classes and fuck around rather than actually learn a vocation.

There are more of us than you think... and the other side wants us to believe we are outnumbered.

Federal T/A was cut for the Army and Marine Corps this doesn't effect State Funded T/A for the National Guard. The Reserve Select GI Bill is still fully funded and can be used after completion of IEDT.

ROTC is a different animal each branch is different, and all branches have dramatically cut funding for ROTC scholarships, the days of ROTC scholarships handed out to MS1's and 2's are gone. The minimum requirements are high and the competition for the few hard slots is fierce.

Bottom line up front, don't expect the military to give away anything.
