Don't hate service members. Most of them are poor kids looking for a way to get to college. That said, you should absolutely criticize our military and it's leaders.

Fact check, just because I had never seen this and it's bananas... The image is real, but it was the title of talk or some nonsense. They're being "tongue in cheek" but also are they?

Remember Americas prison population issues. That follows people their entire lives, and getting decent work becomes a major problem.

Not saying 30k isn't alot of money, but the average price for a new vehicle is in the mid 45s. Cars are just expensive.

Sure, I've uprooted plenty. Some people have circumstances... Like a dependent parent or dependence on a job for insurance. Being human is hard for plenty of people without all the added shit.

Sure, but that's not as easy as it sounds. Your suggestion is to leave family, friends, work, etc etc. Lots of people are tied to a location based on circumstances they can't control.
