No, remember that a large piece of our troops are National Guard; these people already have jobs they're missing right now. We need more cops on the street. We need more human intelligence out in the field (obviously). We'll need more border guards. We'll need more workers to make all the weapons we'll be selling to Middle Eastern countries so they can blow themselves up.
