> It’s essentially a massive job creator that we don’t really talk about as a massive job creator. This is very accurate. Similarly, the TSA doesn't protect america from terrorists, it functions as a conservative-palpable socialist jobs program. The obvious counterpoint is that the attraction for furthering Dick Cheney's imperialist wars abroad almost entirely vanishes if you don't need to kill foreigners to get free healthcare and education. So sure it's a jobs program, it's a path to education, and it's a guarantor of healthcare (it actually isn't, the VA is a dumpster fire), it does all three things perfectly awfully.
