    I’ve thought this for a while, but maybe our service to country isn’t done with a DD214. The current situation in the US and world at large makes me think I can still do some good. Maybe politics needs more people who think like you and me.

      I got told once in the military:

      If you don’t want to be in charge of a bunch of idiots, one of those idiots is gonna be in charge of you.

      And it’s pretty accurate, even on the civilian side.
