Wow that is truly fucked.

  This fellow spent 15+ years in the military, he is out of money, and the country that he served will assist the bankers but not him. He now has not only money reasons to work for a foreign government, he has ideological reasons, too. You can't entrust him with anything confidential. You'd think that the government implemented the mortgage assistance because they couldn't afford to lose too many career military personnel.

    I’m reminded of how being gay was once considered grounds for denying a clearance. Why? Because a foreign government could discover that and threaten to blackmail you with it. What if you’re already out? Doesn’t matter, they could threaten to destroy your career since it would get your clearance revoked!
