and vests lead by someone in similar attire but more command, it was a cantonment area and the defense folks were doing their job..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i long cherished thought came back.."what a waste?"the price we pay for fear..these are men all able, intelligent, healthy capable of doing even the most rigorous of tasks, contributing to mankind and what  job are they doing..protecting a nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i respect the defense forces and owe them my safely but what ails me is their need, just googled out the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_military_expenditures"&gt;defense expenditure of various countries&lt;/a&gt;   , then found whats their GDP to my expected dismay it was a sizable percentage, add  to it what the GDP might have been had all these men been doing other jobs..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and whats their raison d'être , a fear of other men and this freaking expenditure is self breeding, your neighbor develops a missile and you spend on a far reaching one, then he gives a rejoinder and this goes on..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;if only every man respected the sovereignty of others..we wouldn't need the men to ear khakis in anticipation..&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
