Yes, having a stable job that offers medical and dental insurance, various trainings, higher education, housing allowances, worldwide travel, advancement opportunities and a consistent paycheck is better than being a leech.

This should be neither controversial nor surprising.

...how is this a troll post? A leech can be cut off anytime and become homeless. Being in the military you'll get a fixed salary, food, cot, medical insurance, etc.

Yes, it's a good option. There are jobs that you can pick that will literally keep you out of a combat situation entirely, even if you are mobilized. This is probably the biggest misconception. You get in shape, learn respect, get paid, have a place to live, have 3 meals a day that you don't pay for. You learn skills like survival, and how to fire a rifle, I don't care how much you hate guns, target shooting is fucking fun. I served 4 years and I have never regretted it, and it directed my life in a good way. I was a truck driver in the Army, and I was also range control for a year, which is the paddle holder and safety guide on the rifle range. It was a good time, I drove a lot of cool vehicles, fired a lot of neat weapons, including an under barrel grenade launcher, granted it fired a paint grenade.

@MabusIncarnate
learn respect,
Debatable.

There's a fine difference between respect and letting someone else disrespect you.

The Vietnam draft accounts for a lot of it, people had no choice but to go or go to jail and were put in a position to kill people in the middle of a jungle. Some people join taking on combat jobs like infantry thinking they can handle it and when it comes down to it, killing a man instead haunts them and follows them around forever. You can be the biggest, toughest, meanest guy in the world and say "I'm gonna join the marines" and you get deployed and it completely messes with you and you don't realize that you weren't that tough guy you always thought you were. I won't lie, I saw a lot of people fucked from war, from combat, from military service. It's something to really consider and really think about. I wound up spending a year in Kuwait and I still think about it, and remember the fear, but I put myself there by being a supply truck driver. I got through it, I suffer a bit from it and I get that I made that decision for myself, but I still don't regret it.

Joining the national guard is great option for a lot of people. You get a $20,000 sign on bonus, pretty much free schooling, bonus money for being in school, and medical benefits.

Yeah you drill one weekend a month, have a two week training once a year and get a ton of benefits. Coast Guard isn't a bad option either, they don't get deployed and go overseas.
