I don't know about that, but there's certainly a joke to be made about seamen.

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

Navy, hahaha.

I'm sorry.

I know the Army won't go for this and here's why: They know guys like me are smart enough to figure out how to make easy money. I'd "marry" my buddy in my platoon, we get to live off post, housing allowance and all. Bam, easy money. Gay marriages would sky rocket in the Army.

Maybe you hang out with immature women. Maybe you're attracted to immature women because you think they'll let you shpadoink them.

OK, and?

This will last only as long as it takes them to figure out that Partner #2 doesn't have to stay in and after 10 years gets half of Partner 1's retirement. Then you'll see shenanigans like that stop.

Also, not as easy money until DOMA is repealed, as you're still stuck filing taxes and other Federal paperwork as Single.

If it was such "easy money", you'd see more straight males and females doing it.
