Maybe military people are just uniquely stupid

Not at all, no. I gave that example because, first, even in a profoundly capitalist country (whatever that means) the military itself is not particularly motivated by profit; and second, because it’s one of the few bureaucratic organizations that will not (be allowed to) collapse under the weight of its own inefficiencies and so easily grows much larger than is othetwise typical.
