Since when did Americans become afraid to die for freedom?

[/ QUOTE ]

the 21st century. I think many of us have come to the conclusion that I'd rather be alive in a communist nation than be dead while fighting for someone else's freedom. The lack of freedom sucks, but it doesn't suck as bad as being dead. I guess I value life. To my knowledge all the members of my family in the military feel the same way, its their job and they serve proudly but nobody wants to die to support freedom.
