My wife showed this to me and it definitely struck a cynical chord in my life... www.youtube.com/watch?v=yk7nKjr9KeoMy favorite quotes: "Give it a second! It's going to SPACE!" and "...You non-contributing zero!"

Yea, It made me remember the poor souls in Iraq and Kuwait who live in a mud brick hut and tend to their few goats. They might have one light bulb or (read OR) a gravity-feed water cistern. They don't know what privilege is.
When I returned to the States, I heard a lot of "entitlement" comments from people.
I'm thankful for what I have. And I'm thankful not to have decades of hate shooting all kinds of crap at me (or people I care about) anymore.
We have to earn our future...otherwise someone else would be quite happy to hand it to us.
One concerned vet, -Eric
