Dying for any country is just stupid, really, as natural citizenship is acquired by luck of birth.
Smart people do not willingly join the military either. Countries with higher social mobility have trouble recruiting volunteers for military without conscription. Who would join the military when you can go to school without debt and earn a decent living without having to be a tool of empire?
Don't worry about him, he listens to Rush all day long.
Would I die for this country? Certainly not overseas, but I'll fight the fascists who threaten the Constitution and what happens, happens.
I'd like to know who the fascists are who are threatening one of our most cherished and vapid tautologies. Next thing you know, they'll be after it is what it is.

The U.S. has a poverty draft, it gives the illusion of an all volunteer force.
People are waking up. They are finally seeing that they are just pawns in a game between power mad elites.
They don't buy the B.S. anymore; they've been lied to so much that they don't believe a word the elites tell them... even if the elites happen to say something true.
The Man has forgotten who he's supposed to serve, and the people are pissed. It's no coincidence there are riots and revolutions rolling across the planet... and if history is any indication of the future; we'll soon have new folks in charge 'round the entire earth.
But I'm not worried about the powers that be desperately trying to keep their power... I'm worried about who will replace them.
After all, when it comes to revolutions.... for every Gandhi or George Washington there are at least 10 Napoleons, Mao Zedongs, Hitlers or Pol Pots....
And when there is one "president" for the entire planet that will be very bad.
Gotta love the spell checkers that have nothing to offer, lol
From what I hear from the military they notice new freedoms that have been taken from us on each return from their deployments.
Anyone remember the soldiers that had their nail clippers taken away by TSA while they were returning from deployment? Gotta love the logic! This administration is the most power hungry bunch I've ever seen.
PS: Hope I spelled everything right!
