Same exact argument made against so many of the proposed cuts. "Well it isnt going to make an impact because its so small".

Lots of small cuts added together make something big. I feel like the only way they're ever going to actually MAKE cuts because of the OP and your argument is if they do a flat percentage across the board. That way the response to the lobbyists against every single cut is the same.


I mean this 4% is part of the recruitment machinery, so it needs to go anyway. We have to make the military smaller and reduce its scope to something reasonable, anything other than perpetual conflict would he fine with me.

There is a new active duty contract that rolls out 1/1/17, has payouts at various year points if you want to get out early and no collection if you do 20 or more until 55 I think.
