I do not yet know why this book is labeled “controversial”, having never seen the movie or read a review. BUT, maybe it is this description of the military: “A functionless organ, utterly obsolete, living on the taxpayers. A decidedly expensive way for inferior people who otherwise would be unemployed to live at public expense for a term of years, then give themselves airs for the rest of their lives.”
