Your opinion belongs to you. The prevailing thought disagrees with it though. There's a good chance you wouldn't handle making it through basic training and dealing with the military life. Being in the military is far different than you know. The pressures there is unlike anything in most civilian world activities. I like to say it is some where in between living a life in a penitentiary and a Police State. For one thing, its a job in which you can't quit just because that person doesn't want to be there. If a service member doesn't perform up to expectations, that person's life becomes a pure hell. Word travels incredibly fast in the military. If you get a bad name, it's almost impossible to overturn that. It's either conform or be punished, scapegoated, shunned, or even become an 'untouchable'. Isolation and deprivation of sleep and other coercive measures causes anxiety and despair. I'm only 'touching' on the tip-of-the-iceberg here. Read the Biderman Report of Coercive Measures and you'll get a glimpse of what these service people are in for. There's a reason why service members have by far the highest suicide rates, divorce rates, and psychological problems. In stating this, I don't think you'd make it in the military service. In addition, you ought to be a little more respectful for those people giving up their Constitutional Rights and being subject to what amounts to Admiralty law. It's a tough job and one we need to respect.
