GI insurance

Bubba Joe's first military assignment was to a military induction
center, and, because he was a good talker, they assigned him
the duty of advising new recruits about the government benefits,
especially the GI insurance to which they were entitled.

Before long the Captain in charge of the induction center began
noticing that Bubba was getting a 99% sign up for the top GI
insurance. This was odd, because it would cost these poor
inductees nearly $30.00 per month more for their higher coverage
than what the government was already granting.

The Captain decided that he would sit in the back of the room and
observe Bubba's sales pitch.

Bubba Joe stood up before his latest group of inductees and stated,
"If you have the normal GI insurance and go to Iraq and are killed,
the government pays your beneficiary $6,000."

"If you take out the supplemental GI insurance, which will cost you
an additional $30.00 per month, the government pays your
beneficiary $200,000."

"Now," Bubba concluded, "which bunch do you think they're gonna
send into combat first?"
