Title says it all. Inspired by this shirt I saw online just now. Also, anywhere know where I can snag this drip?

So I guess this is 1/2 serious post, 1/2 shit post.

That kids who sign up for the army are usually poor. I can’t find the link right now but lots of users have posted it in here before.

I have come across vets who regret ever going there and one current army member who campaigned for Bernie. Very weird. I point blank asked him why and he said for the benefits.

I worked a job that had me interacting with troops on a bunch of bases in the very late aughts, and I often heard from joes “bro do not join the military I did it because I was high/drunk/broke/911 happened and i joined the next day/couldn’t find a job and I have regretted it from day one”. None of the joes I ever interacted with came from comfort or money, but I only interacted with low level people.
