you do you man. most everyone I knew in the mil was there for school and vet benefits, not because we wanted to murder innocent people in far-off lands. looking at the hellscape out there, it's not an incomprehensible choice for people with very limited options, aka, lack of trust funds.
Yes, that is the exact tool they use to get those people.
Make life as miserable, but allow the military to get all the benefits you should have been getting in the first place.
You want a good life, get a degree! Aww, can't pay for school because we made it expensive? Now you will be forced to join or be bankrupt until your 50s! Tough choice
