The military doesn't need particularly smart people, but it does need people who are trainable; and retards aren't trainable. This is why its considered a huge success when a downie is able to hold down a job bagging groceries, because most tards are totally unemployable.

The military is one of the most efficient organizations at building a better idiot. If they didn't put some brakes on, they'd lap the safeguards and accidentally nuke themselves or something.
