I'm not even sure what there is for people to do right now other than calling your Congressmen and complaining, but this is absolutely outrageous IMO:

http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-national-guard-bonus-20161020-snap-story.html

Short of troops to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan a decade ago, the California National Guard enticed thousands of soldiers with bonuses of $15,000 or more to reenlist and go to war.

Now the Pentagon is demanding the money back.

The gist is that soldiers were recruited to reenlist with large bonuses even though many of them weren't truly eligible. They were told that they were, signed contracts, and paid though. Now the government is demanding that they pay the money back, well after the military got their time and the sand got the blood of many. Absolute 100% :bs: I don't care what program has to be cut, or what do slimeball needs to have his pork/kickback taken away, these "debts" need to be wiped clean immediately and anyone who paid back the money should be repaid immediately as well.
