I've heard many people say that "This is America. You can't force anyone to do anything." I don't think it's true.
Examples?

Yeah , They join the service and go to fight a political war and sacrifice their life so Americans can have theirs...

I agree with u that it isn't true. What about all the rapist,murderers,child pedifiers??? I think also the FBI could also have something to do with politics and dirty games within the USA or with foreign policy. As well as the CIA. I am not so confident. Plus I have seen some interesting things along our borders with immigration.Some really gross things too with airport security and checkpoints. I think in any country u can find anything u want to. No country is perfect.

The obedience studies of Stanley Millgram in the '50s should answer your question. I would recommend looking them up and doing a little research. I think you will discover that all humans are subject to being pressured into doing something they might not want to do; the trick is simply finding the right pressure and where to apply it.

Well, just think of all the people you see on the streets of any major city, or even small town, that don't have anywhere to live.

Of course.
From an outsider's point of view, Americans all too frequenlty have to be forced to think.

Yes they have. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, our government put anyone who LOOKED Japanese in prison camps.
