How is that the militaries fault ? They already provide basic housing allowance, they feed the soldier and provide full medical benefits. If they don’t take housing allowance they can live on post rent free. Post housing isn’t that bad....all the activities provided...morale and welfare resource office.....people in are taken care of. Military pay is public knowledge. What other entry level job going to pay you 35-50k a year ? As you earn rank the pay goes up. Handsomely.
Nobody told these serviceman to finance out a $60,000 mustang. Yet I saw many active duty privates driving them around at fort Knox.....
