Your blind patriotism is interfering with your reading comprehension. How is comparing a diagram with military benefits "slamming the military."

So yes, my reading comprehension was lacking, awaiting clarification from Karnak. And he can answer for himself.
And I can answer for myself, so don't put words in my mouth. I'm happy to argue the merits of his post once I know what he meant.
I asked him a simple question and he's yet to answer, but you knew that too.

That should be correct. When I was there for training I got a Lyft to the closest grocery store for supplies, like snacks, beer and some breakfast items. My room at the North hotel had a fridge, and I believe you can request one for free if it doesn't have one.

Instacart will deliver from Publix. Get a tendies sub and all your groceries delivered instead. Works great.

It was a Kroger about 3 miles N of that hotel. Sketchy... well.. it wasn't bad but maybe at night it could be. My room for the month of training was a larger suite that had been renovated. It had a "kitchenette" with a fridge, microwave, sink and a small table. Every other time I've stayed there for CQ or bounces it's been a regular room.

There is a crew lounge on the 4th floor with the above items and a fridge.

Two years ago. I'm sure there is a limited number of rooms, so it probably depends on how full the hotel is of people going through a long program, and how many rooms they keep back to sell.

I made 40k more in 2018 vs 2017, all my deductions the same yoy. 2018 refund 2.8K, and that’s paying 3K AMT. 2019 payment due 1.3K, 0$ AMT. The difference is what he took away, union dues 5.7k+ deduction, perdiem deduction well north of 10K... my effective tax rate several points higher. I’m a conservative, but Trump tax hike is taking food off my table. He ain’t no friend of labor.. that’s what we, pilots, all are, we know that, right???
I don't understand why people get so focused on what they got back in a refund, or how much they had a check to write out.
And the way our tax code works, the more you're going to find yourself in a higher bracket.
