To keep an entire nation safe. He has to navigate a sociopath.

Man has a medical degree from Cornell and is 80 years old. He has served his country for decades. He chose his country over money too. I'm am so tired of the narrative that only military make sacrifices.

My grandfather was a coal miner in WW2. During the war, you know what they told him? Get your ass back in there and mine coal. You are not going to war. We need steel.

Job was as deadly as any soldier's (actually at that time it was MORE dangerous) You know he got for his troubles? He got fucking black lung then he got dead. No G.I bill for his kids. No TriCare. Nope. Reagan did manage to fuck his union though, so his widow's pension got screwed. So I guess there is that.
