[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Commissary, anyone?[/quote] I’m convinced that so many Service Members struggle when they leave because the cradle-to-grave socialism of the military takes away a lot of day-to-day anxieties. Of course, those anxieties are replaced by other ones - seeing active combat, year-long deployments, etc. But when socialism works well (see: U.S. military life), people often flounder when they are removed from that structure and tossed into the cold reality of the U.S. civilian economy and society.[/quote] People flounder when trapped in a capitalist economy, you say? [/quote] No, people flounder when they have been infantilized and dependent on others and now have to grow up and live independently. Even our national parks know this; don’t feed the wildlife, they stop learning to forage for their own food [/quote] That’s not why parks don’t allow feeding. It’s to minimize human/wildlife encounters with desensitized animals that may attack.[/quote]
