While I spent 11 years in the Navy I noticed a trend. Many people from lands other than the US joined the U.S. Military. Most of these people did it not because of a lotality to the U.S. But because of money. Many would send paychecks home to suppport their family and economy. If they spend 20 years in they could receive retirement about $1500 per month. In many countries this would be like getting a $6,000 pay check in America.
When they are finished with a 20 year job. "by the way active duty people rarely go to war" I spend 11 years active and never went to any hot spots. They can relocate to a Non US land and still receive the full amount of a military retirement. This of course comes from our Taxes.
When only 5000 people do this, Our US of A send's $90 million per year to support the temporary patriot.
Is this a loop hole that should be closed?
Is this ethical behavior?
Is this helping or hurting America's Welfare?
