because while our government may spend like crazy they simply are not good managers of money, likewise if your unit's financial section failed to account for enough necessities like toilet paper than they were apparently not very good money managers either. Finally, every military person knows that their pay is part of the cat and mouse game the congress plays nearly every year as sides fight for things like shiny new planes or hefty social programs.
