It's not "jealousy". It's the knowledge that as we see our standard of living slip, we have to listen to people like Admiral Whats-His-Face and other folks from the military tell us that we "owe" them such perks as the commisary. When it goes from us civilians feeling that our military deserves what we do for them, to our military bitching at us and telling us what we owe to them.........................

Well, that's just not very smart public relations, now is it?

Not trying to be mean, just trying to convey what I'm thinking.
