      Die overseas and they pay a one time 100k payout…

      Come back with a bunch of injuries and the government can pay over a million over decades. Not even getting into college and other benefits.

      They don’t want veterans, they want dead soldiers. Because dead soldiers motivate their friends and family to join out of a list for revenge. Not many people with friends/family who are disabled vets sign up.

      The days of military families are mostly over these days.
