If it means ending a free ride for people who can easily afford it then I'm good with it. Shoot, look at what we have done to those who can't afford it in the past 20 years or so. Shameful.

What you say is unarguable but irrelevant since my post contained a qualifier which anticipated and acknowledged it.

Do more with less. During one training session I finally heard "do more with less" one too many times and couldn't stop myself from commenting that we would soon be doing everything with nothing.
