You...are aware that the US military is a rural welfare program, right? It's designed to suck in skilless, poorly educated rural (and to a lesser degree, urban) young men...and to employ adults making munitions, gear, vehicles, and weapons systems.

For example, just about the only reason Susan Collins is still a congressional representative is because she reliably keeps defense spending rolling into the Portsmouth naval shipyard which in turn is fed by a large network of suppliers.
