Proposal:

I paid off 90k of private and federal loans over the past 3 years. One could say those loans were the biproduct of a bright eyed 20 year old fresh out of the military and deceptive practices from private technical schools.

I am debt free, thanks all in part to my wife. It was fucking rough. 

just got a $601.80 vet bill so... at least someone’s got health care on the government’s dime(?)

No, it's always better for you to have the money you should be paid. If you can't handle your finances, maybe you should learn how to do that. But either way, it's better than for mommy gov't to hold on to your money for you like you're 5.
