This appears to be just silly needling. I will respond and see where it goes but it doesn't appear to be genuine query. "Tell me would you switch jobs with them. If I wanted to be in the military I would be. I have chosen my work and don't wish to switch with anyone. So, what? I have great respect for the sacrifices people have made to enlist in the military at this time. I have said so frequently. I have heard the reverse from most critics of America's current role in the world. Or is what they are doing of such trivial importance that they don't deserve anything but a pay cut?" They deserve our respect and to be honored for their noble endeavors. I think people playing games on the weekend deserve the least...they get the most. I think people who stand for truth and justice deserve the most...they get the least and in many cases they get only torture and death. None of that means much in this practical matter. The simple fact: The Pentagon doesn't have the money to pay extra so they can't. You are making political hay and personal attacks over something that is not political or personal. tsk
