We know that before this system, when they had to pay something, we seemed to be staffed well enough before entering wars post 9/11. I think there is a way to approach this analytically that can give us an answer note based on emotions on the subject.

I think the article already showed the impact. It would offset 3% of the cost over the next decade.

Is a $54 billion dollar defense spending increase for 2018 necessary given the level of our global military involvement compared to 2008?

I'm not going to ask privates to pay 5% of the monthly base pay while the AHCA reportedly gives $274 billion in tax cuts to the richest 2% over the next decade.
