You have to understand what the US military does. Largely, it exists to secure sea and air lanes in the interests of Western capital, and, if necessary, obliterate land obstacles to the interests of Western capital. That's why the US can basically print money at will and nothing happens. Without the US military's global presence, regional power vacuums would be filled with all kinds of instability.
Just saying. This is basic realpolitik. Learn, and become the smartest person at yer next cocktail party, where words like honor, code, loyalty are used as a punchline...
Civilian here. Just a very informed one.
