Not just reward people for not supporting themselves. Still sounds like more welfare to me.
this is something I wonder about. why for four years of service do we pay benefits for the rest of someone's life? while I thank people for their service how does four years equate to 60? that is something that ought to change or else it it just another form of welfare.
