PRIVATE BENEFIT to the few VS. GOVERNMENT BENEFIT to society, aka "social."
P.S. While it is a fact that the military comprises people in a multitude of "jobs," being a base medic or plumber or mechanic or computer whiz is not the reason the US government accepted anyone into the Armed Services.
The ability to be a soldier, sailor, airman, or Marine, potentially to risk or even lose one's life in battle, is the reason. THOSE ARE THE JOBS.
AND those particular jobs are not found in our private employment sector.
