For me doesn't make much difference, I get Navy retirement and SS and very few bills, house is paid off, so I have plenty on cash to buy every crazing shop tool I want and hardly need...lol...long as I can do that I am happy
I did however get a raise in my Military retirement of $34 a month and my SS went up $35 not real sure if that was a planned raise or something else...but I'll take it
Don't go there unless you have good reason to believe that you know what you are talking about. Which benefits do these "unregistered immigrants " get that you would like to have for yourself? I would not trade places with any of them.Hobbyman2 wrote:GoNavy wrote:Well not so fast on that praise...while I am glad you are seeing a benefit, keep in mind only about 18% of Americans will see those benefits, while 82% of the top corporations and the 1% of the richest folks rake in millions in savings...little loop sided don't you think, also keep in mind your savings are scheduled to away in a few years, slowly decreasing over the years until 2027, your not going to continue to see those saving, while the corporate stuff and the rich tax breaks stay in affect until 2027 unchanged tax bill mandates that they don't change, they didn't see the need to mandate that for the average citizen.

=================
Right now we will take what we can get, its better then watching it all go to our enemies .
Hope fully by the time this expires some one else will have a new plan.
Looks like we have time .
Under the other guys we wouldnt get what we are getting.
Kind of sad when a illegal gets more benefits then some one who worked all their life and retired ,,,or many of our vets.
Glad you are doing well and thanks for your service.
