Way back when I can in it was called VEAP. Similar deal: They took out $100 of your paycheck for the 1st 1 (or 2?) years and in return you received education benefits upon separation. A few years later we had the choice of cashing out or converting to the Montgomery GI Bill. Being a responsible kid. I took the cash out and put it toward a car.

What is the difference in money to each taxpayer if he golfs in VA or FL?

Once my taxes are being raised to pay for Trump's ways as to where he and his family stay, vacation wake me up.
I gotta say I find your stances odd. You don't care if an alleged billionaire waste tax payers dollars on unnecessary trips because your taxes haven't went up, but have no problem charging thousandaires a couple grand to use a benefit of military service.
What's the difference to each tax payer if the GI Bill cost $100 billion instead of $97 billion over the next decade?
