The paper benefits for soldiers or armed agents of Military Technology in New America remain quite favorable compared to their peers.
An annual salary of 35,000 Orokin, and that's after taxes.
But in the capitalist world, even if your job is to defend the nation, risking life and limb for a company, protecting its assets, it doesn't stop you from having to pay for corresponding services, because transactions are everywhere.
Each year, military uniforms cost 800 Orokin, accommodation 1,500 Orokin, and all your living supplies have to be bought out of your own pocket. Monthly food allowance is 450 Orokin, but each meal costs at least 10 Orokin, and that's the basic package, typically a starchy hot dog + synthetic mashed potatoes + fried vegetable rings. It might be slightly different depending on the place, but the total won't differ much.
Want to eat well?
Sure, just pay for it yourself.
