Post -9/11 GI Bill Changes Under Consideration

Thanks for the post. Heard something about this on the news today... Don't think it will go anywhere myself, except perhaps for charging to transferring benefits, if that.
 
Unfortunately I think this is the (possibly intended?) effect of a policy change like that. New E-2/3's pulling in $1k a month are not going to be very likely/able to contribute $100 to buy into the program despite being the ones who would benefit the most. I think the new retirement system functions the same way.

“There's the concern some folks with a strained budget, particularly junior enlisted, may feel like they have to choose between family health care now, education later, or retirement well into the future.” - See more at: http://www.moaa.org/Content/Take-Ac...m_campaign=GIBillChanges#sthash.gTX6qFaB.dpuf
