First, a clarification:

I never meant to convey that a volunteer army is necessarily or inherently discriminatory - the "(in the United States)" tag in the original post is meant to convey the notion that, here, it is discriminatory in practice.

Also, it's my understanding that you don't find too many military people whose families are from the top 25% income bracket. Is that correct? Why is that? I imagine that not all of them are flaming liberals.
