You alluded to Japan earlier, when Japan is only one country in the big continent of Asia. China is also in Asia, and I bet that some of those at IU are Chinese and they too have higher GPAs coming from a military place like that. All I'm saying is your general comment of Asians was incorrect, I kind of understand your point, but when you think of Asia, you have to include militaristic places such as China, Mongolia, Hong Kong and Korea.</font>[/quote]The point that I was trying to get across is that a country once set on an agressive military task, such as Japan in WWII, who can divert their resources towards a non-militaristic technologically based corporate agenda AND be successful, is proof that a large military is very unnecessary for the proliferation of a higher standard of living. Or a higher socio-economic standing for everyone. It really isn't too hard of a concept to grasp, its just the difficulty of educating everyone. Then again, some people like the idea of massive world-wide bloodshed. And those are usually the ignorant people I hate.

Vol, YOU need to look into the things I was saying before you go opening your ignorant mouth.
