You obviously don't want to discuss the issue at hand, just a post from over a year ago. So let's do it.

You said - "You're right. I'm just "copping out" because I'm a "self-centered Korean ingrate who is so caught up in class that I'd abuse or neglect my fellow citizens.""

I had said in that year old post - The old stereotype of the Korean's is that they are so caught up in class, that they abuse or neglect their fellow citizens. That a clild born out of wedlock is thrown into the streets. That a Korean of a slightly higher class will
give no respect to a person of a slightly lower class.

I have no idea if this is true. But your selfishness fits the stereotype.

Now maybe you just become the PC police when it has something to do with anything Korean... but I stand by what I said.

You fully support the war--- but you are against the draft, and you are against raising taxes to pay for it. As you've said, you think it's appropriate to "pay" the lower classes to die in your war, just as you pay them for any other service. I find that objectionable and un-American. (The fact that 10,000 US soldiers, many of them drafted, gave their lives in the Korean war does add more than a little weight to my disappointment).

re: Still expecting me to thank you for Korea?

Not me, the 10,000 who died and the many, many others who's lives were ruined.
