Pretty f****** sneaky.
I assume all of you people have been to gamefaqs.com atleast once in your life. Lately i dont visit it much, but i happened to today. If you look at the poll and the options, it just screams sponsored by the US military. Wheres the "No, it doesnt coincide with my beliefs on how things are being done right now." option? I bet theres a lot of people who would chose that answer. Hmph, completely manipulated to make us feel bad. Hmph.

the "No, it doesn't coincide with my beliefs on how things are being done right now." is the don't vote option and completely ignore all results from the poll

well i didnt vote, but the point still stands that the options given for that poll arent fair. All of those are covered in some army recruiter catalog or on some faq. I can distinctly remember ads for the army that address all of those issues, aside from the not wanting to die. And even then the point is always brought up that "if one is not willing to risk their life for their country, do they truely love it".

Point is that those kinds of surveys are the ones that magazines and what not go off of.
And then the uneducated masses read and believe.

Idiots take these polls and post their uneducated opinions as always... Nothing new. And yeah, magazines and the news uses these numbers to make crap up. You always see negativity and crap like this because bad news sells and hate sells.
People spend more money on anti-whatever stuff rather than pro-whatever stuff all the time. Bad news is just more interesting I guess -.-

Of course just the uneducated masses, which happen to make up around 85%-95% (depending on your location) of the population

you know i'm not really sure how much it would matter... you can take almost any set of information and get almost any statistical answer you want for it.... it's jaust a matter of how you analyze the data... they'd get their paphlet to say what they want anyway heheheh
