What jobs are available for Raytheon that would have you qualifying for food stamps?
I've met people that make literal drones for them but it's undergrad research so they're either unpaid or it's like a $2000 stipend for 3 months of work. And these people are the most ardent defenders of American foreign policy I've met.
You'd have to be to choose the defence industry over any other private sector industry
It’s not just about already rich people. A lot of kids in school from working class families seeing Lockheed, Raytheon, etc. as nothing more than easy money.
Those guys will be the shittiest workers because they only care about the money and not the actual work/company. You want those guys to be the ones working there
Contrary to popular belief, a lot of people who work desk jobs in finance and engineering firms actually work their ass off cause the concentration of kool-aid drinkers is so high amongst those populations
You should be afraid of the people who can make easier/better money elsewhere but still choose defence firms

Would a state that implements such means testing even have investment firms and private weapon manuiacturers in the first place?
Can't you just do like a reverse of the current US anti-communist stipulation from citizenship and go "are you an imperialist or have you ever been part of an imperialist group" as part of the conditions and then actually enforce it?
Government assistance is their entire business model tho
