The U.S.'s Dirty Double Dealings
Doesn't anyone get the idea that our fucked up current D.C. regime hates our military? It's bold and blatant at this point: they're paying Blackwater mercenaries for the same goddamned jobs that our own military personnel are doing at a higher rate of pay. The troglodyte's "code of ethics" is so messed up that our soldiers are being short shrifted in comparison to the employees of Blackwater. I just think that those who have someone serving in the regular military should be told point blank and in the face this fact, because too many of them don't make the correlation between what Blackwater has been paid, and the military's pay. If every soldier was able to act as though they were a member of a Union, this could be a good time to hold a strike and let all these mercenaries deal with the war, and let the regular military people go home. Either that, or give them equivalent pay.
