A soldier is a public servant working for the people, the elected government directs their actions. Wether you agree or not is an issue for the president and congress. A doctor is a private citizen who works for a corporation and is paid well to do it. I think we pay soldiers because giving people heavy explosives and guns and not training them sounds dangerous. Point of fact most soldiers are sorted by aptitude, infantry (shooty ones) test lowest. Mechanics, pilots, engineers, even doctors are trained by the military. For every shooty you need at least 3-4 support staff for transport, medical care, food, logistics etc. most of the military isn't trained to kill, even the infantry who mainly learn to follow orders and survive. So with tuition so high why don't more people turn down med school for military duty? Is every mall employee a conscientious objector, or is there a hidden cost to military service that civilian students don't pay? This question is now answered.

So sick of America's shit 10 comments

People like talking about America. The USA is the celebrity tabloid gossip of the world, or a convenient scapegoat for any problems. Russia and China are both huge countries with similar histories who love war, human rights violations, corruption, and screwing the world over for their gain. Americans are loud though so you hear about it more. For over a decade Russia has been trying to control the natural gas supply to the EU and Britain. Russia has been working to reclaim former USSR territory through military action since at least the 90's. The news is full of American internal policy, and everyone knows the presidents name- but how many Americans know foreign heads of state other than Putin and MAYBE the British PM? They only know Trudeau because he was "cute." Most Americans don't want anything to do with the world. As always blame politicians and those looking for headlines. No country has their shit together completely, I doubt any ever will.

shE-bay. Just read all the details though. I got an insane cheap price on a mail order Latvian bride one time bid sniped. Shipper was ground+slowl boat only. Add the customs delays and let stock just say......
It really was a killer deal....
