Isn't that exactly what the poor 18 year old from Kentucky is doing when he signs up for the army?

  That’s not a good way to get neither money nor power.

    A common refrain to explain kids joining the army is to escape being stuck in a small town with no opportunities. So, they are saying they're okay with killing in order to improve their economic prospects.

    Compared to other prospects for that 18 year old? College is out of reach without help and the military is a good way to get the help needed to go there.
