Sanity -> RE: Military cuts (7/30/2012 5:33:22 AM)

Right joe, theres a huge private Army... Navy... Air Force and Marine Corps
Blackwater employs four or five times the troops the US Military does in fact [;)]
Its HUGE... [:D]
And again, though, it was clear enough that Obama was spreading his lies about actual soldiers and thats what the discussion was focused on, I did touch on such technicians pay (or "compensation") when I wrote that those techs are paid a fraction of the private sector, that said techs are often in for the training and benefits NOT the pay, that they arent their skill level isnt always all that great either. Further, as a civilian one would see a physician for certain levels of ailments but in the Army a low level medic with minimal training would treat that same issue. I also wrote a couple of times that such techs would receive very large raises were Obamas lies about the Romney proposal accurate, didnt I? But I am always happy to repeat myself for those who have difficulty catching on the first time around.
And the FBI isnt military, joe
And no, soldiers arent employees. They cant quit, and they cant form unions etc

And since there is no equivalent to the military in the private sector, what youve shown does not apply. In other words, the Obama campaign is lying again
There are no medical doctors in the military, Sanity? What happens when our soldiers get shot with bullets? Do they just wave their hand over the wound and say 'all better'?
There are no waste disposal technicans and engineers in the military? Could you explain why the US Navy is switching from urninals to generic facilities on its newest carriers slated for being finished in 2015? The US Navy stated that the urinals unlike the toilets clogged more often and were often a pain to deal with. Guess who gets to fix those pipes?
How about Military Police? Pilots? Generals/Admirals and other....Chief Executive Officer positions? JAG lawyers? Mechanics? Gunsmiths? Guards? Marksmen? Cyberwarefare Specialist? Your going to have us believe there are no private sector equivilants to these military roles? Are you really THIS dumb?

Soldiers and sailors and airmen etc are not employees taz, theyre essentially government property. And again, there are no soldiers in the private sector to speak of so there is no bringing military compensation in line with the private sector.
Actually they are employees. They are employed by the US Military, whom gets 100% of their funds directly from the US Goverment. Just like FBI agents are employees. They are employed by the FBI (that's why they are called FBI agents...). The FBI gets 100% of its funds directly from the US Goverment. So far your arguement doesnt hold any water. But it gets better! No soldiers in the private sector? You've never heard of the company called 'Academi'? They used to have an infamous name here in the States back during the middle of the Bush Administration: Blackwater! What is a private sector version of a soldier often called? A MERCENARY!
