Call me a traitor, for I have switched sides

[John Ho]

This post is an indictment of military recruitment standards.

The sarcasm was dripping.

Young men and women sign up to defend our country...not to engage in unnecessary wars by incompetent, dishonest Presidents. Just because you might need money for college in return for service doesn't mean one forfeits the right to fight for something worthwhile. They're not slaves to be used for any purpose.

I'm confused, are you being sarcastic?

Last I checked everyone one that is serving in the US Armed Forces VOLUNTEERED for these jobs and know damn well the consequences they face. I did 12 years and not once did someone "make" me sign the dotted line.

Oh wait, or did they just think Uncle Sam was gonna give them a free ride to college with nothing in return?
