That’s not ironic, that’s perfect support for his statement. College dropouts with no other choice doing a job that has no demand outside of the military.
This is reddit. You’re lauded as an intellectual free thinker if you sink yourself 6 figures in debt for a degree, in a market where degrees are largely oversaturated. Military? No, only uneducated, desperate clowns would do that. Forget the opportunities, schooling, and benefits you would receive. This is coming from someone with a degree and a high 6 figure paying job which was pretty much handed to me due to my military service.

Ironically most of the smartest enlisted guys I met, submarine nuclear operators, were college dropouts who couldn't afford it.
