I've seen what Guard deployments can do to families financially. I've read about the Guards antiquated pay system. Guard members don't go to the active pay system when they are deployed; they stay in the Guard pay system and have pay issues. Why isn't anyone looking into these issues? Why aren't they calling for forming a non-profit to help these families, financially, while their loved ones are serving our country? Using these people's plight is reprehensible. I've seen pretty words from both candidates, but I'm still waiting for the action. Yes, that is great rhetoric, but where is the action?
