I don't really agree about his the corporate conspiracy stuff, but he is right about the military mission. ALL MILITARIES exist to enforce the political will of governments. That is why the other part of the oath, which he did not mention, was "to obey the orders of those appointed above me".
I have to say that I would be conflicted if my son decided to join up. Having served myself, I'm torn between wanting for him to have such a uniquely intense experience, and of course fearing for his life being lost in a pointless and unconstitutional war of US international aggression.
