    That’s probably because the phrase “dying for your country” means “dying overseas” to you. I would hope you’d think differently with an invader at your doorstep

      I think it’s perfectly reasonable to not want to die, regardless of the context.

      I don’t really feel my country has done too much to help me have a good life. So, I’d be more than happy to take my tax dollars and higher education elsewhere if it came down to dying or not dying.
