SOURCE (http://www.esquire.com/features/man-who-shot-osama-bin-laden-0313?click=pp)
The man who shot and killed Osama bin Laden says that the military essentially told him to go “fâ€â€Â- yourself†after he left the service and inquired about continuing health care coverage.
“My health care for me and my family stopped at midnight Friday night,†he said in the days after he left the service. “I asked if there was some transition from my Tricare to Blue Cross Blue Shield. They said no. You’re out of the service, your coverage is over. Thanks for your sixteen years. Go f-ck yourself.â€ÂÂ
The man who killed Bin Laden does not receive pension, healthcare or family protection since he left the military, Bronstein writes.

Well DUH... he ruined a 10 year game of hide and seek.
On a serious note: if what he says is true, then the U.S. Military are a bunch of backstabbing bastards. If not.. well he needs to teach people how to lie.

I doubt its not true, but funny thing is, he wasn't in service for 20 years so he can't qualify for pension and healthcare. That's the thing.

Government wastes billions yet can't provide support for its own military who put their lives on the line for their service...
It pisses me off.

Wasting billions in a war that does not stop terrorism, but rather enhance it...
-
Only in America.
Sorry thats just what I say on every topic US related.. Anything US related only happens in America. :lol:

My ex-gf's husband got screwed in a similar way. For nearly a year straight they stopped paying him his salary because they "couldn't afford it". Meanwhile they were shipping more soldiers off to Iraq and Afghanistan, and recruiting people like there's no tomorrow.

It's funny how America follows Soviet's war-themed policies, which collapsed from inability to garner cash during peace period. And since USA has $16+ trillion debt.....

99% of the debt was caused by the war situations too. Bush, (the second one), was a horrible President for the country. He took us from a multi-billion dollar surplus to a multi-trillion dollar deficit in a matter of 4-8 years. Seeing the military just follow along with the "too bad for you, I don't care" policy that Bush had is quite horrific to see happening to our soldiers. First, most of them are killed in combat, then the ones who survive get screwed on their paychecks, and get a middle finger for doing their jobs. It's just disgusting to see...

implying he killed osama bin laden..

Actually, the USSR collapsed because of the Fantastic Four: Brezhnev, Andropov, Chernenko, and Gorbachev. :razz:

You already get financial/medical aid. College is free for those who join military.

Really... so this is how they thank someone who saved the entire country from potential threats.

Obama increased the deficit more in his first term than Bush did in his entire presidency...

Yes, cleaning up the mess left behind. Considering he walked into a near-Depression, I'd say he did pretty good. The country was already in debt when he showed up. He didn't tank it like the previous guy did.

Peek-a-boo!

They were the catalyst of the collapse following death of Stalin. It was ought to happen one way or another, but it just happened for leading politicians to be drunken fools.

Imagine you had a nice chateau by the time of 1999-2000, then owners changed and the chateau became a shithole. When the owner changed and had no money, he still had this shithole he had to work with.
Omaba was left with a country which was pretty fucked up, you should not forget that he comparatively put the country back on its feet.
