What does the average soldier make a year? Y'know, the soldier who at any time could be on the front line with his ass on the line.
And what does the average banker get paid? And how do banker office conditions compare to a soldier's on the front line?
Can you even make a comparison?

1. Hey, bankers face the constant threat of spilling their martinis on their $5000 suits. |

There are a lot of potholes in NYC and the limo driver can't avoid ALL of them.

3. Point is you have no point? |

Our soldiers are just slaves? Bankers are worth million times more than a soldier?

4. If soldiers are slaves, what are the people they kill? |

If you are trying to say that soldiers are mostly pawns for fat cats I will agree completely. If soldiers haven't realised that after almost ten years of occupying other countries they are probably no longer pawns but active participants of aggression and oppression. Which if true, fuck them.

I grok the motivation behind being a soldier. It can be a noble experience. But time and again it has been shown that it is just the fat cat bankers who are the only winners.
