While I understand the sentiment, US veterans are in many ways victims of the capitalist system themselves. At 18 years old, they're pressured by family or school administration to go into the military. They may have grown up poor and have no viable career path once they leave high school. College is a pipe dream. Combine that with recruiters who will use every high pressure tactic in the book and outright lie to get you to sign ("sure, you can get leave later on to be the best man at your friend's wedding"). All this is happening before they're legally allowed to drink, and they certainly haven't finished developing into their adult self.

They go off to the military. Most will get through with nothing more traumatic than boot camp (which can be pretty traumatic) and some shitty food, but some will die, and others will be injured or have PTSD.

Keeping those services and improving them is part of cleaning up our mess. So is dismantling the capitalist system that creates more of those veterans.
