Re: Robert Heinlein: Starship Troopers

I thought it was a fresh breath that Rico wasnt the main guy wasnt the 1000th SF character who finds his world so bad that he must change it on his own. Revolution or something.

It was surprising that Rico enjoyed his world thanks to his success to me because of that. His straight forward thinking showed his age and how his world brought him up.

It was cynical and troubling world but it showed to how selfish people are, Rico didnt care how messed up his world was as long as he didnt have a problem with his career.

If it wasnt such a good SF good story you would find many things unblievable in that world.
