enlist means NO COLLEGE DEGREE
OFFICERS have college DEGREES

Some people dont want to go to harvard or yale. thats my point, its THEIR CHOICE. and if their choice is to enlist an SERVE THEIR COUNTRY, thats as admirable as a college degree IMO. Arguing IQ levels based on personal choices is retarded.

so, take me for example. i had a 3.8 GPA in HS. i went to college, an never made over a 2.0. I HATED college. I didnt graduate, i dropped out, and found my way.

I tested at "genius" level on my IQ tests in HS. I also scored a 1360 on my SATs.

am i dumb?

I dont make $80,000 a year. hell on the BOOKS i make less than 30K as far as uncle sam is concerned.

am i dumb for being "lower middle class?

thats my point, the military has some GREAT benfits, retirement, and it appeals to certain people. why should that dictate their "smarts". So are you calling my father who was a USAF colonel "not the brightest mind the country has to offer"? he scored 1380s on his sats an was a mathmatician

i mean, what if i called all astrophysists dumb? or web designers idiots? or stock brokers morons?

i know some PRETTY FUCKING STUPID college graduates
