How about this, lets start importing Gurkas and Spetsnaz who will work for $20,000 and put all those over priced US NCOs out of work...sound fair? Maybe you can get the analogy.

If they are able read, write and communicate in English, why not? The 36K wage attracts a certain individual from our population. Those are the people we want in our armed forces. If we needed individuals who fit a 20K profile, we would make them a part of our armed forces too. I think it is you who do not get it.

You want mercenaries fighting for this country - go for it. They are, for sure, cheaper. They just have the tendencies of changing sides or going where the money is better at the wrong time.

Nice analogy. Actually, wouldn't a Gurkas word for $8,000 or less? LOL!! Overpriced American SF NCOs! Love it!
