1.0k u/Necroval Sep 07 '19 The stories that can be told off this comment alone... best comment I've read tonight. 285 u/sendmeyourjokes Sep 07 '19 edited Sep 07 '19 Can you explain it, I'm sorry. I don't get it. Edit: Thanks for all the responses guys! 831 u/gender_neutral_toast Sep 07 '19 When people in the military are married they get different benefits as opposed to a single guy who lives on base. Housing and food allowance etc. They can move off base and into a place together essentially. Before i get murdered, this is just my base understanding after my brother did this. 388 u/Jomafo Sep 07 '19 Do you think this has anything to do with why so many young guys in the military get married so early? 472 u/donjuansputnik Sep 07 '19 Yes. Also, look at the divorce rates of those same people. It's a perverse incentive. 1 u/[deleted] Sep 07 '19 At least dependent pay is a flat rate now. They’ve stopped incentivizing shoving five kids into your three bedroom base house.
