I guess they are fashioning it after college dorm cafeteria, where on top of my thousand dollar a month rent, I was required to pay up front for food service, and then paid for food out of that fund, effectively incentivizing me to buy a pint of Ben and Jerry's every day, or else just lose that money forever.
So its a way to guarantee income for the contractor, by forcing employees to hand over a portion of their paycheck. I feel like it's somehow worse than paying the soldiers less and letting them eat for free, but I'm not an army psychologist
- AlotOfReading 8mo agoI'm amused by the obvious incentive for the contractor to make food less desirable so soldiers order less of it, but not so unpalatable that they complain. I imagine the contract specifies things like portion size and calories, but there's a lot of ways to dress up unnecessarily bland food as healthy.
