I ' m working during Thanksgiving for time and a half pay . <| sep |> I have respect for WWII soldiers who were drafted in with no say because the country was actually under attack but those who serve currently do it because they want to go and shoot some people and blow shit up . In the UK at least from my experience the attitude is go into the army because hey I want to blow shit up and get paid for it with the job security too . 911 was bad but it was a maybe 50 , 000 people who were directly effected with loved ones lost but that is no excuse for the loss of life in Afghanistan and how the country has been completely destroyed and left now for terrorists to run . <| sep |> Not only that , issues would be different too ! The parties naturally tailor their platforms to split the electorate close to 5050 .
