Korea has that policy and look what a nice place that is...er, wait a minute... *NM* Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 31/05/2010 06:08:14 AM
you can benefit the society in MILLIONS of ways that are not military or law enforcement of any kind. You know, like almost every other profession can contribute to society.

YOU are talking about forcing people to literally sign away their lives because you think the will-breaking freedom-squashing order of the military would be "good for society".

It is 100% immoral to require people to sign away their freedom, particularly in a country that claims to stand FOR freedom.

I think she's still slightly below the national average. Tom - 30/05/2010 04:26:16 PM 771 Views
I am uncertain if she is working full time. cmdjing - 31/05/2010 12:57:29 AM 850 Views
Have to agree here ... The_Muted_Grimaud - 30/05/2010 05:54:54 PM 767 Views
It's a column, not a real article... and it's more critical than you suggest. Legolas - 30/05/2010 04:02:26 PM 763 Views
No it isn't. Tom - 30/05/2010 04:24:20 PM 800 Views

Very bad life planning, and sadly, it's not an isolated case. Tom - 31/05/2010 04:01:46 AM 713 Views
Same. Humanities, while necessary, are something of a luxury given the numbers. *NM* Ghavrel - 31/05/2010 07:35:25 AM 393 Views

100% in your camp here. LadyLorraine - 31/05/2010 04:35:45 AM 684 Views
I don't see the point in a humanities major if you aren't planning to get more than a bachelor's. Ghavrel - 31/05/2010 07:41:40 AM 886 Views
srsly. way to devalue a bachelor's degree, american society 9_9 LadyLorraine - 31/05/2010 08:07:47 AM 681 Views
I have a BA in English Literature. Rebekah - 31/05/2010 11:20:28 AM 804 Views
that's fair enough, since that's why you took it LadyLorraine - 31/05/2010 10:20:36 PM 764 Views

Heh. True fact. *NM* Rebekah - 01/06/2010 09:56:09 AM 282 Views
That's kind of a weak reason, though. Ghavrel - 31/05/2010 11:11:49 PM 699 Views
I'm pretty sure I didn't use that as my reason... Rebekah - 31/05/2010 11:15:32 PM 733 Views
That's true, although I don't know how many jobs that's useful for. Ghavrel - 01/06/2010 01:20:29 AM 702 Views
That's fine. And I didn't go to Uni to get a job. I went for the education. Rebekah - 01/06/2010 09:29:28 AM 880 Views
I want to make clear that I, as a humanities major, really do like the humanities. Ghavrel - 01/06/2010 09:37:39 AM 880 Views
I know. Rebekah - 01/06/2010 09:55:41 AM 801 Views
