Much more complicated. The military also fights for a free press (unfortunately, at the moment) civil rights, due process of the law, small business owners and entrepreneurs, artists, universities, unions, Noam Chomsky...they fight to maintain everything that is American. It ain't all bad here. Without them, we'd just be another Canadian province. Imagine that horror.
