It's a REAL and EXPENSIVE problem. Each one of our MPCs starts at about $12,000 before training. Add the fact that they're providing vital support in theater (when properly used) and they're getting burned out, wounded, and killed just like our Soldiers. It is not an appropriate topic for sarcasm.
Sadly some of them have it bad enough that they can't be salvaged by retirement and adoption.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
