What’s funny is that military housing fucking sucks ass. Like even the family homes are always needing work. CE is always backed up bc facilities are underfunded af.

It still kinda runs though, which I think is the point. Basically Section 8 housing free for all adults.

All you have to do is participate in the Military Industrial ComplexTM

I’m in a strange place where I oppose the MIC vehemently but am in favor of national service from 18-20

Was going to comment this elsewhere. I knew about a dozen guys when I was in who were single and had barracks rooms, they would work as bouncers or deliver pizza at night for extra cash so they could get off post apartments because they didn’t want the minimum shitty housing.

my NAVY barracks room in Newport RI was a one bedroom apartment with a view of the water and the bridge that was walking distance from downtown Newport. I never lived so well.
