I think it is inaccurate to suggest that such a disservice to deployed service members is truly representative of what the DC politicians think about the troops sent there to "guard" them.

First and foremost that line of thinking ASSUMES that the entitled ruling class in DC even considers the needs of public servants.
I believe it was John Kerry and other democrats that have frequently opined that it is an all volunteer force; if they'd have gone to kah-lidge they wouldn't be stuck serving in the military...

The same folks that consider returning service members a "threat" because of their radicalized view on freedom and patriotism.

The same folks that don't give a shit that you are sleeping in a parking garage eating the cheapest food from the lowest bidder that the comptroller could dig up.

The same folks that never miss a hair salon appointment even during a pandemic.

The same folks that are allowed to make millions on legal insider trading deals.

The same folks that are able to raise YOUR taxes while keeping "their" money legally sheltered in off-shore accounts.

The same people that are happy to ration YOUR health care on a broken web site while getting life long premium health care on the shoulders of YOUR tax money

...lets not pretend that "those" are the folks we are mad at.

Be mad at the society that has enabled them through grants of unlimited power. Besides, these troops are from Michigan they have spent years empowering politicians that provide them with poison water. They should be almost immune to this sort of treatment by their elected representatives.
