"Join the military and die for the military industrial complex!"

Do you even know how much an apartment rents for now in most major cities? You know, where most of the jobs are.

In my region the army was how we got to college. Fair trade given 90% of the work we end up doing is sandbags or chasing jail escapees (it's like search and rescue except everyone's got guns and the training not to use them).

Sorry your impression is different from my memory.
