MicroChromatic Dysentery For The Children

Howdy disco citizens,
Fun-filled random love for your kidney stones.
Don't bury me in quicksand just yet.

People who talk incessantly on their cellphones while driving are fools.

Military Death Benefit Called Too Narrow
Did you know the families of military personnel who die currently get only $12,000 as a "death gratuity"? Of course, Republicans want to limit the money. I thought they were "pro-troops"?
"Under the Pentagon proposal, a tax-free "death gratuity," now $12,420, would grow to $100,000 only in cases where the service member died in a war zone as designated by the secretary of defense.
The Pentagon also would substantially increase life insurance benefits. The $250,000 coverage offered to all service members at a subsidized rate under the Servicemen's Group Life Insurance program would be raised to $400,000, and for troops in a combat zone the government would pay the premiums on the extra $150,000 coverage.
The increases would be retroactive to Oct. 7, 2001, the date the United States launched its invasion of Afghanistan in response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The families of the more than 1,500 troops who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan since then would be eligible.

Aw gee, my homeland has seen Better Days (anybody from the D remember that club Better Days? Off of Woodward, down some alley).
Too bad about Detroit. Sadly, it's the same old story, different decade.
