MaxxRamblings: Was watching a news article where parents of US Marines were lamenting the numerous conflicts that the US is engaged in around the world. In the interviews I could also make out that it is predominantly the middle or lower income groups who were being represented. I inferred that maybe the rich somehow manage to keep their wards away from the wars conflicts.
This also made me wonder that if tomorrow the US feels its troop strength is depleted and issues a conscription mandating all naturalized citizen and Green card holders to serve the nation which is helping them shape a glamorous career, will it still be as lucrative a proposition to stay or will they make a beeline for their respective hometowns.
Will the famed American dream still be as alluring..
Will they be able to serve their providing country with equal zest and gusto? How is the feeling to die for a country which is not your birthplace?
General notion says it's not possible for one to be as dedicated..
More than anything else, Can one have 2 mothers (err.. Motherlands) :) :) :)
With the deteriorating political conditions between US and China nothing is impossible....What say u?
