Throughout history when counties lose ONE war, they may become permanently enslaved. The same is TRUE today. The main purpose of Federal Government is to protect its citizens. The military ensures that protection. The military uses many troops that are of a young age - their most productive age - and pays them very little to start. They DESERVE all the discounts, health care, and other fringe benefits that they get. They deserve to leave service with pride and have their GRATEFUL country love them.
