Yeah, I'm not looking to go into the intelligence field. Although I made that decision while Bush was in office, I don't think Obama is going to be much different in terms of fighting or deterring (or failing to deter, as the case may be) terrorism. So, it's not likely that I'll be agreeing with the government's actions with regard to the middle east or terrorism for quite some time, and I am still young and naive enough not to work for an organization that I have ethical qualms with.
You can make a shitload of money and still live in the US...or go to the green zone and get $250k a year
