So they are eating slightly more healthy than someone eating boot soles as only meal of the day, they are being deployed for months without rest and they are dying in combat (or combat-related operations) BUT they are not at war so them and their families can’t get benefits from it BUT ALSO they can’t return home because they not at war but they are at war at the same time (which is not a war because the Congress didn’t say so).
Are you trying to piss off the army and make the people with weapons turn against you? Because this is how you piss off the army and make the people with weapons turn against you.

They’re gambling that the American people, including the soldiers, are too atomised and too docile. Just like unions in other exploitative industries are becoming increasingly rare. I think they’re probably correct, they ain’t gonna do shit but accept it. You’ve gotta be constitutionally a bootlicker to join the military anyway. Those people don’t have it in them to stand up for themselves unless it’s “against” their wife and kids.
