I have to say whats with this moral high ground? BigTwin...this argument is flawed, as basically very few people here will agreee with the overall opinion that any armed service is a good one.
Regardless of whether we have been told it's a 'war on terror' and is in our best interest...deep down...everyone knows it's a war for profit, greed, and mineral deposits, just like very other cunting war.
Is it unfortunate that you're in the army...yes, because the money is never going to be worth what you will experience and therefore you would expect a sympathy/empathy vote ...for ''our boys overseas'' fighting a dirty fucking war that no one really wants for the worlds largest fucking crime syndicate. ie the multinational corporations, coming to a developing country near you. \if you feel bad about the stick you are getting...imagine someone dropping depleted uranium on your country, and if you didn't drop it someone else did...and they were also in combats and carried a rifle. how do we know it wasn't you?
Anyway what has that ramble got to do with phones ? who knows,
do I think that we should allow this corporation to hold you to their contract, when they want and penalise them for finishing it early? no...as I don't think any company should hold you to ransom over a fucking contract...do they provide a service? yes, does it usually measure up to the exagerrated claims they bombard you with ...
no...not when they usually offer so much and provide so little, much like the damned government...
You are linked to a rather dubious war, that took a profitable and wealthy country, reduced it to the dark ages by destroying most of its infrastructure, and then stole the 23 billion dollars set aside to rebuild said country...and the other monies were awarded to huge multinationals such as halliburton (whom the main protagonators of the confilct just happen to be on the board of the directors) oh...and the vicious dictator you removed was trained and put in power....by the same damned people 30 years previously.....????
I have to ask, was it ever wise to get involved with something so so so fucking awful?
