    Mr Miller you need to repair the rip-off military retirement programs.

    You people in congress want our young people to go fight and die, recieve terrible injury for other people’s land grabs and civil wars. You should at least pay them for their sacrifice.

    I remember there was much protest and violence for America’s meddling in the Vietnamese Civil War. Today they just go quietly as lambs.

    The British paid $15,500,000. in damages for aiding my people during the Struggle.
    The US government should walk it like it talks it and keep us out of these civil wars.
