Abusing systems is as American as apple pie. Fraud, abuse and corruption are all bad everywhere they are found but this is small potatoes when you think about what all of us are losing everyday. It's hard for me to get too spun up about this when our politicians are being bought by companies and foreign governments to do things that are terrible for the American people. Sorry for the digression but there are bigger things to get pissed off about.

I have to use goats to pack everything for me. I can no longer pack my own stuff.

100% agree. Judging a combat veteran by his appearance or the way he moves is lame.
