TRICARE on the chopping block
#11
If anyone thinks Tricare, like the military pension, is going to be around forever, well that's highly optimistic.
Considering 99 percent of the US has done away with pensions in favor of boosting executive pay and dividends to shareholders, how can the military not follow suit? I fully expect to see the pension system dissolved and instead it will be all TSP/TSP Match. Healthcare will lag behind, it will still probably be fully covered until youre out or in the reserves, at which point, I do agree TRS premiums will go up.
What did America do to herself? She already did it, basically like 20-30 years ago. The military is just the last man standing.
