Would you fight for a nation that doesn't pay you a living wage for murder? How stupid are "the troops"?

That change would also impact thousands of military families who monthly receive the SNAP benefit across the U.S.

Although Pentagon officials have not yet commented on the proposed cut, in the past they noted that such cuts would hit troops hard, and that they would look to mitigate any impact on families were the cuts to be approved by Congress.

The number of active-duty military households who use food stamps is notoriously difficult to track, in part because the Department of Agriculture (USDA), which manages the program, and the Pentagon have not in the past shared data on the subject, according to 2016 report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO).

That report found that about 23,000 active-duty troops used food stamps in 2013, the most recent year for which such data were available.

Fucking sheep, all of them.
