You were asked – TMP link

Does the United States need a light infantry force specializing in amphibious operations as a separate service?

77% said "keep the Marine Corps as it is now"
10% said "absorb the Marine Corps into the Army and Navy"
3% said "take away Marine aviation, leave Marines otherwise the same"

Yes, keep the Corps as is … Well trained Infantry like the USMC, the Army's RANGERs, SF, 82d, 173d, 11th, 101, 10th MTN, etc. still have many uses, regardless.

Definitely modernize the Corps.

IIRC they are doing that, e.g. new Amphtracks for one.
