In fact, I find Jenkins a bit childish because he doesn&#8217;t get the same tax breaks and aid that those who actually serve the country get. And, oh, yeah that retirement after 20 years is so grand that most of us have to work after we retire. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll bet he&#8217;d be singing a different tune if they were talking about a tax break for State legislators.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to ROS for the links.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senate Majority Leader Scott Jenkins rants against all of the benefits that National Guard soldiers from &hellip; <a title=\"Utah (R) State Senator wants to block tax break for deployed NG troops\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=28839\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Utah (R) State Senator wants to block tax break for deployed NG troops<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[155],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-28839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-shitbags"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28839","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=28839"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28839\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28839"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28839"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28839"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
