You mean like as in where my wages went then, yes. Did the government pay me for being in the Air Force? Yes, I’m not an idiot… I don’t work for free. I never got handed a fistful of cash for not working, some of my school was paid for via scholarships…I’m a senior and a 4.0 gpa. The point is hard work was rewarded, nobody handed me anything. The pilots license was paid out of pocket, that sh’it wasn’t free… a lot of training and work went into paying for everything. So I know what you’re implying that the military paid 100% of school, not even close…$1300 a semester was to be received as part of my agreement for enlisting, tuition is over 10k a semester --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/our-44th-president-barack-hussein-obama/200520)._
