or you could always call up all your warloving friends, and ask them to serve. God knows you must know a few...because I don't.

ANd while we're at it, how about closing down the sprawling empire of military bases around the world. If they're not on U.S. soil, they're NOT needed and they SHOULDN'T be needed. Would save us a lot of money too.

I'd betcha a lot of people wouldn't have a problem with Marine recruiting stations if they felt those soldiers would have one job and one job only: to defend the homeland. But sadly, that hasn't been the case since 1945, and some people (myself included) are tired of supporting the imperial war machine that allows for us to invade at will.

So unless it changes its ways, screw the marines. I'm one of those Latin americans who DOESN'T have much fond memories of them.
