i REALLY don't see what's wrong with this? actually, i've been saying for years this should be done. all these people coming to America, legally or illegally, are expecting a free ride while the youth of our nation who're born here bear the brunt of battle.

my Afghanny friend who got political asylum here, once he got his citizenship, signed up to be an interpreter in Afghanistan and served 2/yrs because he wanted to repay Amercia for being good to him and his family.

you want to live in this country, do 3/yrs in the military defending it.

or the peace corps, and i've known professors and execs that've gone to do a tour with the Peace Corps, and said it was the most gratifying experience they ever had in their lives.

bottom line, people need to contribute to this nation. if you dont contribute, what good are you to anyone, or yourself? JMO

Good post SG. Agree completely.
