House: Give loose change left at TSA gates to troop group
"If military action is worth our troops’ blood, it should be worth our treasure, too" "not just in the abstract, but in the form of a specific ante by every American." -Andrew Rosenthal 10 Feb. 2013
3 December 2013 - The House has passed a bill to donate the loose change collected at Transportation Security Administration check-points to the United Service Organizations, the private non-profit group that supports American troops.
The TSA Loose Change Act would give coins left at TSA gates to "nonprofit organizations that provide places of rest and recuperation at airports for members of the Armed Forces and their families." Currently, the USO is the only organization providing the types of services indicated in the bill's language.
Because no members requested that the votes be tallied, the bill passed unanimously without a roll call vote. read more>>>
RM: "We got a huge round of tax cuts in this country a few weeks before9/11. Once 9/11 happened and we invaded Afghanistan, we kept the tax cuts anyway.
How did we think we were going to pay for that war? Did we think it was free?
Then, when we started a second simultaneous war in another country, we gave ourselves a second huge round of tax cuts. After that second war started. The wars, I guess, we thought would be free, don`t worry about it, civilians. Go about your business." 23 May 2013

As those served continue ignoring the issues, wealthy reaping profit off the no-bid war contracts to private corporations, of those sent to serve in, costs too much if recognized, for as long as they can!!
