Andrew Straw on Homeland Security

Minimum income and benefits for those who served in military

Some groups do have merit-based reasons for being given more. I think if someone served in the military and they got a medal at the bronze star level or higher, such a person should have a minimum income and benefits so they are never homeless and never run out of food.

We need to start using the Internet to coordinate all of these services and benefits at all levels.

We spend too much on the military now

A: Oppose. We spend too much on the military now. This money should be shifted to scientific and medical research. Family of veterans should be compensated and given full health coverage when they are poisoned by bases, such as happened with Camp LeJeune, NC, and other military bases.
