That is very true...I would rather be an E-1 working in the Navy than working at Walmart. Even if you have a good hourly wage, if you do not have adequate health care you are basically walking a tight rope. At least a guy or girl cleaning bilges in the engine room will be taken care of if they get sick...and their families too.
