Fair. This makes sense. I didn't think of militaries as companies.

I guess the ideal situation is when your goals align with what the company wants out of you.

While I'm not sure I agree with your point about liberals "destroying" organized religion, I agree that churches (and other place of worship) unite local communities and the members look after one another.

We should really be putting far more effort into building similar non-religious communities. Things like book clubs, hiking clubs, or anything that involves shared interests.
