Just a couple of questions to toss out, for conversation's sake:

Is the military the only way to give something back to the country?

As a follow-up queation of sorts, do the taxes we pay to help keep the country running count as giving something back to our country?




This is exactly what military action protects. Your ability to keep the country running and give people better lives and allow them to live said lives to the fullest with as little violence as possible.




I'm not sure I understand your answer here, or how it relates to my question. Would you mind clarifying this for me?

If an American citizen doesn't believe in a war that America is fighting is right, should he still be made to serve and possibly give his life for a cause he doesn't support?




I don't see the conundrum when taking this into mind.




Um...there was no conundrum.
