Yea so I am skeptical. Quite an interesting take on the issue though.

One part of me wants to think it's great, and another part of me wonders why the fuck nobody gave me 20 grand for my wedding and why I don't get free money every month and a new car.  You'd think I'd rate.  I never tried to fucking murder anybody.

Amen.

But I have the same ambivalence you do.  These guys are in effect programmed, like cultists in this country.   (Remember the Jim Jones mass suicide?)  If they can be deprogrammed, however unjust the expenditure might seem in place of 50-cent bullets, there may be some unexpected hope for the future.

A drop in the bucket? It's interesting but I wonder how much effect it will really have, other than for propaganda purposes.
