    Bleak economy gives rise to military enlistments

    Filed under: General Life, Money, News, Politics;

    I was reading an article on yahoo news that more young soldiers are re-enlisting in the service because they are afraid that they won’t be able to get a good job in the civilian workforce because of the bad economy.  What a very sad state of affairs that is!  To re-enlist, knowing that you will probably go to battle, because you are afraid that you won’t be able to find a job in the civilian world!

    The article was explaining that it is pretty much standard fare that when the economy is bad, people join the military because it is a steady paycheck with benefits.  I truly hope that the fighting ends soon; I hate to see any of our citizens put in harms way!
