An E-2 in the military protecting our country makes $21,078 base salary a year. A person on welfare, food stamps, free housing assistance and free health care will make $35,000 easily and could be upwards of $40,000. What is wrong with this picture? Sit on your backside and live well, or try to make something of yourself and get penalized. When I was growing up, JFK, a Democrat, said, "Do not ask what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country!" Seems like the mindset now from Democrats is free, free, tax, tax! Go Trump!
