My friend, The soldier

My friend Chris is serving our country, risking his life for ours. He fights for all our freedom that we all complain about every day that we deserve. Now our country has stopped paying him for the time being in order to save money on other things. How is he supposed to provide for his wife, his daughter and new child on the way? I think our country owes him a lot more than that. Not just him, all the other men and woman that risk their very lives in order for us to have our freedom. They are under appreciated as is and now our country is basically telling them how much more they are under appreciated. I think something should be done to provide for those that serve their country and their families! They value our lives enough to protect them, its about time we valued the lives of them and their family. Our country has gone down the tubes and it's all about "me", there is no "us" or "we", its only "me, me, me!" I don't have all the details on the exact reason or time frame those that serve their country will not be getting paid, as I don't watch the news and what not, but from seeing things on facebook from the families of my dear friends that serve our country, it breaks my heart to see the rough time that they are going through. I ask everyone single one of you that read this to help those who make your freedoms a possiblity, take time out of your days to appreciate them, and if you have the means, please send care packages and any kind of donation to help those troops in need without a pay check.
