Go to CONSERVATISM -- A DINOSAUR THAT SHOULD BE EXTINCTAdd a commentGo to THE STORY ISN'T TALKING ABOUT PAY CUTS FOR OUR TROOPS

Corbin -- a cut in pay is having less pay -- less increase is not a cut
it is a raise in pay, just not as much of a raise.

you make it seem like military personnel would be receiving less pay.  A bit of disinformation, I would say.

What you have described is partisanship on both sides ...
of one-dimensional political thought.  And that would be "extremism", not "conservatism", as Nelson Rockefeller pointed out.  And it is the bane of the people, not specifically the worker.  Indeed, the unions are a greater bane for the worker, who is forced in his quest for a living into an allegiance with the union boss rather than the more natural alliances with the small farmer, artisan or shop owner.
