See, that bottom number is what happens when you send a couple of million young people into combat zones where they get broken mentally and physically. If we're going to decide to do that, the paying for it on the other end comes with it. And that number will continue to get bigger as those young people become not young anymore.
Methinks you had no issue with paying for the thing that caused all those people to get broken. So, not wanting to pay to fix them makes one a piece of s***.
Funny, Republicans support the troops...until they're no longer useful, then they s*** on them. Kind of like I've been saying for years.
