Surprised you don't make your own tools from recycled scrap iron.

Now that Soldiers finally have spare time from less combat deployments and are soon to be kicked out into the job market to make a smaller army, the government has decided to get rid of tuition assistance for the military.

They've been doing that sort of thing for a while, Phil.  The GOP wouldn't advance last years' veterans' jobs bill without a cut of an equal amount in gubmint spending.

Heaven forbid we try to spend money responsibly.

Doing so would be more sustainable, environmentally friendly, etc., right?

Nothing says "enviornmentally friendly" quite like one's very own backyard blast furnace.  ;)

Pretty sad.  I used this program a lot in my last three years in the Army.
