Well because it came down to benefits and I cannot do an OP on this froum for a week, I thought this was a good OP to respond to with the view of the Boston Globe about the entitlements of veterans. This is very much a form of collectivism and something that would have to be absolutely abhorrent to most most ACers as incompatible to their philosophies.

My advice is to veterans to stay well away from AC has it has no understanding of sacrifice for the nation and for liberty.

Im pretty sure acists(could be way off here as im not that informed on the subject) believe veterans would be taken care of in the form of chairty.

What veterans? Under AC, there is no government, and hence, no government-run military. There might very well be force specialists, but they'd be employees of firms just like any other people, and would have things like employee benefit packages, employer-matching retirement funds, etc.
