Just realized I am paying to much for BEER!

As a veteran I’ve asked for discounts frequently especially if they advertise it. The service ID card , which you only get to keep if you retired at 20 or more years is mostly the one they accept. I couldn’t figure out why this area has many places advertising for veterans discount. The Villages which is a huge sr retirement community near me ,it is largely retired vets. It pisses me off that guys who retire vs those of us who didn’t technically retire ,
But served anyway, would get discounts. WTF
As a non-vet, if it were up to me Vet's would all be treated as heroes, respected & known.
They would no longer pay taxes, long story short they would not want. The only people I know who die for what they believe in are Vet's & Jesus !
