If young men and women only knew they would never sign up. If only we actually had a free press that reports this kind of thing instead of covering it up. Thank God for alternative media. And forums like this.

And we also need a true reperesentative democracy and complete transparency with Representatives and Senators who can't be bought, and who would value the health and life of all our citizens. This also requires the outlawing of all Wars that lead to these corrupt practices of using lethal chemicals and methods on healthy human beings, native and foreign.
No, people never do learn because greed and the need for power creates the destructiveness which characterizes Wars and life on earth. Until human beings can create peaceful and non-destructive societies capable of providing food, clothing, shelter, and all proper intellectual and material needs for all human beings on earth - until such time, we will have to endure the misery of this existence, like the people in the allegory of Plato's (Socrates) Cave who watched the shadows on the wall of the cave, their only knowledge of 'reality'.*
