    What is the value of your life? Is it twenty thousand dollars or maybe, forty thousand dollars? Is it worth gambling that some bonehead won't send you to fight some war against a fictitious threat or treat your life as expendable to save big oil? Is a down payment on a home for your family worth leaving your kids without a parent or your spouse without a partner? If your life and the people who depend on you mean nothing to you, sign on the line and be a pawn in the Pentagon crap shoot.

    They should be recruiting from prisons and offering amnesty to illegal aliens for signing on. Send the drug addicts over in exchange for all of the opium they care to snort. If you're going to die for corporate America, you should at least be high when it happens.
