Makes me wonder how in the US it is often the soldiers and ex-soldiers who are the most ready to be patriotic although the 'idea' of the US is small government, less stormtroopers on the streets, etc. I mean, aren't soldiers kind of part of the government? It's ultimate fail back system, so to say? Why are US soldiers so happy to defend the fat capitalists and their obese offspring by getting blown up in some foreign conflict thousands of miles away from US borders?
