It’s a similar story when it comes to education. There’s something wrong when 1/3rd of potential recruits can’t serve because they failed the military’s entrance exam or never earned a HS diploma or GED. — PolitiTweet.org

A 2015 study found that $125 billion of the Pentagon’s budget was lost to bureaucratic waste. Imagine how many more kids would graduate if we invested that in our schools instead. And if we don’t make this investment, imagine how many would-be troops we’d be losing. https://t.co/Z9TL06ueQB — PolitiTweet.org
