It'll benefit those who decide not to make the military a twenty-year career.
Why don't you give pertinent quote(s) from the article that makes one want to click on it?

I forgot, you're a dumbshit.

There was nothing stopping military members from saving for retirement under the old plan. They could invest in an IRA and or the Thrift Savings Plan. This either an obvious lie or Meese is an idiot although it could be both.

"Military retirement is now going to be modernized"

Translation: we have come up with a plan that saves Uncle Sam a couple bucks and our vets only lose out on 20% of their retirement (assuming they live long enough to collect it.)
If anyone (talking to you WTF) thinks this is a good idea, I suggest you put your money where your mouth is and give the Federal government 20% of your retirement each month when the time comes.

Obvious preparation to phase out military retirement.

Under the new plan, those who do stay for 20 or more years will see a 20 percent cut in their pension payouts, though the difference should be offset in part by the contributions to the plan's 401(k)-style component.

Point of Order.

Since the original bill was vetoed by Obaminable on October 22, 2015, does anyone have a reference/link to any version that was signed by the President after October 22, 2015?

Where's the Act that was passed making any changes?

You all apparently are discussing the "effects" of an Act that was vetoed by Obaminable in 2015. That's the subject matter of the thread. Where is the act that supports the alleged change?
