You can post all the statistics and find all the sites you want to. All that proves is the parents have what they have.

Kids just coming out of school have NADA.
HUH? What you are saying is "you can show all the proof you want I'm just going to still believe what I believe based on my emotions". JW do we put kids in the military from poor families...hell yeah but that's not all the military is made up of. In the last few months we have enlisted a lawyers son w/ 3 years of college, a guy w/ a masters degree, a kid that was a deputy sheriff w/ a 2 yr degree/ another kid who's mom was a lawyer, and a couple of kids that come from a household with a combined income of about 75,000. Those are more the rule than the exception. Why do you feel the military prays off of the poor?
