Why blow up on the guy? He wasn't talking about people like you. He specifically was talking about people who sit on their butts and do nothing and people who don't produce anything. You don't fit that bill, you joined the military, worked 80+ hours a week, are furthering your education and planning on getting a high paying job. Hardly sitting on your butt and doing nothing.

But this conversation does beg the question; why should we workers have to pay for other people's housing, food, medical care etc?
