      Same people that the military attracts. Those that think being violent makes one a badass, and can’t restrict themselves to fiction like a normal person.

        I can tell you fundamentally don’t understand who the military tends to attract and retain.

        A lot of the time it’s young men from broken homes and often poverty, who want stability, a pay cheque and a future.

          Well, yeah, them too I suppose. Still, I’m middle class, I know plenty of people willing to join for that reason. There’s more people joining for both reasons than I’d prefer.
