Once more into the fray....

Day 2,404, 11:20 • Published in USA USA

Currently there are only two discussions which should be the concern of all Americans. First up is the Requesting Audit of USAF, which I believe has been quickly answered by Secretary of Defense DMJohston and I wish to publicly thank him for the quick response. I do not support a lowering of the current USAF Budget Line, but I will be supporting placing any unrequested government funds into a Reserve Fund to be used for the creation of a Military Academy.

Next is the Work Tax Decrease, which has been passionately discussed by both sides of the debate; as always I encourage all American citizen to at the very least read these threads -however, a response or two would be good to see. Personally I see no reason to lower the Work tax and in fact would support a raise of 1% to 2%, currently the largest portion of USAF funding comes from private donations; but with the current situation America finds herself in I would probably vote against a raise.

EDIT: To be clear USAF receives 215k weekly from the CBO, recently dmjohnston has gained tighter control over spending and has not been requesting the full amount. Added to this government funding is a fairly large sum which has been privately donated and this amount exceeds anything the government has provided.

Your Congress in action:
The Tax Refund Act
Work Tax Decrease

We The People

I would like to once again represent America in Congress so please vote on June 25 for the We The People party.

"currently the largest portion of USAF funding comes from private donations"

Huh? This doesn't sound accurate.

The USAF currently receives 215K in funding from the government, which more than meets their weekly combat needs; but apparently they also have a reserve of privately donated funds which far exceeds what the government has provided. My question now is does that make them a private MU?

>.> No, the reserve covers things like boosters when they are available, Tanks 4 Tanking, new programs we are working on to help new players upgrade their training centers, etc. The reserve also does not exceed what we've received from the government. That's just simple math to see that that's the case.
