Well you could have potentially died for the cosmopolitan rat bankers' sake in the Middle East.
You made the right call in not wasting your life on fighting useless wars that the elites want fought in order to profit from them.
Smedley Butler's War is a Racket is a great piece that anyone wanting to join the military should check out before making up their mind.
I also used to be cynical about the whole thing but after listening to veterans from all eras, mostly on JockoPodcast, I changed my mind about service. Even if the war itself is "unjust" and the string-pullers are self-serving, those who are willing to fight are good and patriotic individuals who deserve respect and deference.
Also, if you are a nerd, there are a ton of jobs that don't require leaving a base, or even leaving the country.
