When the surreal becomes the news



No job? No health care? Worried about your retirement? (i.e. ending up old, sick and broke)

No worries

The Department of Defense is hiring.

Why?

Because endlessly expanding war is America's new growth industry.

Here's Fox News shilling for the military, gushing about what a great employer it is:

* Confidential online mental health assessment.

* Free "stress reduction" programs for children at Fort Bliss?

* "If you love, travel this is definitely for you."

Is it just me...or is this the creepiest "news" story in the long time.
