I have watched people around me. Many of my hard working friends have to move back to their southern small town after military service simply because there are no jobs here in southern california. Makes me wonder, if there are no jobs here in southern california, can they lend a job in southern states? Sadly these people joined military because they wanted to see the world, they didn't want to stuck in their small southern towns, now, they had to go back because they couldn't afford living in southern california? One bedroom apt (600 square feet) will easily cost you $1200/month. Public school in poor neighborhood is a joke. So if you have kids, you have to move to a better neighborhood, many parents simply cannot afford it. Fair? I think not.
