    The unemployment rate for veterans compared to the rest of the country is something I find more indicative than 3 anecdotal examples you gave.

    lol people convinced the military leads to great job opportunities
    What you aren't understanding is what they are doing when they get out. With the Post 9-11 GI Bill and incentives from federal and state, they can live comfortably while going to college. All without going into debt. Google any CEO and they'll likely have a comment about wanting ex military. But you obviously know that since you would assume I get a job at your co with no experience nor degree

    Yeah you're right. I have no idea how when you file for unemployment, you are counted as unemployed.
    knowing absolutely nothing not fed to you.

    In the Oliver North video, he talked about how these 18-22 yr olds are self sufficient. Which is funny since you can't even do your own laundry.

    making more stuff up because you can't find any real insults to use
    being 5 years older than me and having a job below me when you're done with the military

    people in college don't count towards unemployment, this is something anyone with basic macroeconomic knowledge knows.

    Actually, it's closer to 10. And their success rate was 100%. Might be a result of several factors, not the least of which was their age having entered the service upon HS graduation. And yes, experential data makes it clear that the military can lead to great job opportunites.
