    Sensible cuts of wasteful and ultimately damaging programs.

    Toddlers should be schooled by their parents, not strangers.

    We need to cut as Trump is costing taxpayers as much in a month on personal travel as President Obama did in a year. Priorities you know.

    Wives and dependents should remain stateside. Keep their economic contributions domestic. Local prostitutes overseas cost American taxpayers nothing. This will bring a rebirth of the postwar Big Band wave and the Pete Kelly Blues.

    I think you missed line 4 bro.

    I actually approve of the cuts. Federal agencies are FAR to fat. I work for one. I know.

    We don't give a fuck if you approve of it. Ask our military if they approve of it...

    Supporting the troops isn't just cheering for them when they go off to war.

    An E3 in the US military makes $22k a year.

    The average cost of daycare in the US is $11k a year. I imagine it's higher in Germany.

    Look, don't get your panties in a bunch. Not all people affected are E3's, not all E3's have kids, and not all members of the military are broke and cant afford child care.

    Also, I am sure the executive branch will fix this oversight, because I initially though the Armed Services wasn't impacted by this EO (of course I haven't been in my work email in a while to read it again) . I was just trolling you guys today. Fresh off the plane from Maui with a little piss n' vinegar in my posts.

    What makes you think my "panties" are in a bunch? I was just pointing out that the men and women in our armed forces don't make that much and daycare/preschool, as I'm sure you know, costs a lot.

    You approve of these cuts to military families but have nothing to say about the wasted money spent throughout the Pentagon and the wasted money that we give away in defense contracts. There is MUCH lower hanging fruit than military family cuts... Shame on you...
